Good morning my name is Irene Estébanez and let's go through the most important news of
today! First of all: What about the weather, Mattia?
Today it's raining! And now, we can move to one of the most controversial news of the year. As you may know, since the
discovery of an ancient law that permits tourists in S'Arenal to participate in the elections,
the newly elected president in the Balearic Islands is the German Wurstkopf.
The weather is beautiful! Hehe, äh, I am sorry, but I don't speak Spanish.
He's visiting the IFISC institute due to the prestigious Maria de Maeztu accreditation (qué coño dice Irene allí? appredistation?? CORR) received last year.
Let me show you the TV report Gian Marco did for the occasion.
Good morning, everybody. Now, the president of the Balearic Islands is arriving to the institute.
Hello, I'm Miguel, welcome to the institute! I'm going to guide you in this visit.
Thank you!
Now, we are going to introduce you the research lines of the institute.
But first, let's take a coffee and a cookie!
Ah, haha! Cookies, very good!
Ah, come on!
Never mind, let's go inside.
But...there are no more cookies here.
Bohmehoemmebollehallehomeho
and Rodri, there were no more cookies...I don't know...
And is this your PhD thesis?
No.
In addition to the simulations, we also perform experiments here. Let me show one of the laboratories.
Mhm, interesting!
It's a bit cold in the lab, right?
Yeah, the lasers perform better with cold temperatures.
Come on, let's continue the visit!
Ok, hehehe.
So, are there rats in the lab?
Actually my work is not work with lasers. I'm building a trap for the mouse.
-Oh, OK!. Can you explain? -It's very sophisticated.
You pull from here. When the mouse is here, you are hidden behind.
And then when you see the mouse coming, you pull it. It's falling, the trap, and it's capturing the mouse inside.
-So this basically is your PhD thesis? -Yeah more or less.
-Do they give you grants for this? -Yeah, always.
Oh, good! So, can you explain something else, like for example, what is this?
Ah, no, no, no, don't look at this, this is just a...
Now, I am going to show you the IT people.
They're the best hackers, I mean, computer scientists that you can imagine in the world.
It's amazing.
Here you can see uh, uh...
the, the, the computers
No, no, don't worry, don't worry
They are working so hard. These are the computers.
Ah, working hard, OK!
They are really nice.
Hello, I am the president
Nice to meet you, welcome.
Are you working hard?
Yes, we are working. Lately we have been working on new technologies
and bringing this to another level.
And because of this and because of your visit here,
we have named one of our servers "S'Arenal".
Arenal? Hehehe, I have understood Arenal.
I think you will like that detail.
Me gusta, me gusta, me gusta
No entiendo lo que dice Rubén aquí (CORR)
Let's continue the visit, please.
-Hola Inma. -Hola.
Do you have more IFISC t-shirts? The thing is,
the one that you gave me last year, first was very good for getting laid,
but now it smells a bit like goat and I don't pick up anyone anymore.
-Are you talking about this one? -Yes
Actually, it's one of our best t-shirts, are you sure that you're not getting laid anymore wearing it?
Yes, it smells a bit like goat and so...
OK, so look, I'm telling you:
We have improved it. If with this you don't get laid, son...
We have put the new logo there. Look, how it fits.
-But what are you telling me? -It's amazing.
And if you don't get laid with the t-shirt, listen,
This is even better.
With this, even my grandmom gets laid.
-I cannot believe it! -Look at it, look at it!
We have improved everything, really everything.
What a weave!
Well and look: The sketch blocks we had before were ??? (CORR)
Now, with the María de Maeztu logo, you don't even need a pen.
Qué diceeee?? :-(
Y después,
Right now I'm going to show you the PhD student room. But first, as you can see, we love
the open-doors policy. It's really good.
-Hola. -Hey.
And this is the PhD room
Our students are really outstanding physicists working on the frontiers of knowledge. And who knows?
Maybe one of these days one of them is going to win the Nobel Prize.
And they enjoy really much their research, right?
-Yeah, yeah. -I hear it.
So, basically this is your PhD research?
Yeah, it's my PhD research, funded by the Spanish ministry
of Science. -Okay, but actually, what are you exactly doing?
We are using the infamous
voter model developed by the IFISC to study the spread of porn and
porn tags in websites. -It's very interesting!
Hey, can you please switch off the camera a bit? The voter model,
can you also use it for manipulating an election? -Yeah for sure it works
perfectly. You could conquer all Spain. Oah, you get all the money you want. Very good!
So sorry, one last question, so basically the voter model, is it water for voters?
Yes, otherwise we wouldn't be paid.
Now it's time for lunch, let's go!
Ah, what is this?
Hey, why are you here?
I need to heat and there is only one microwave. It's been two weeks.
I'm waiting and I'm starving.
Don't worry, this is only for students, we have a
