📍 Novinka ve Statistickém geoportálu!

V aplikaci Statistický atlas jsme rozšířili datovou základnu tématu Obyvatelstvo o roky 2019–2020.

Díky tomu můžete sledovat vývoj vybraných ukazatelů v různých územních úrovních od roku 2019 so roku 2023. Uvidíte tak např. i to, jak se do demografie v různých regionech promítla pandemie Covid-19 nebo příchod uprchlíků z Ukrajiny.

Atlas is an interesting AI tool that you can use to tutor yourself in various subjects. You can upload study materials covering your subject, and its AI will parse these materials and allow you to interactively use its AI chat to tutor yourself in the subject. It also allows you to do create flashcards, quizzes, etc. It runs on a freemium model where even the paid tier is a modest cost of less than $6 per month on a yearly basis.

Industry analysts say the company could get an extension if it has demonstrated substantial progress by then nytimes.com/2025/04/28/science

I am old enough to have lived through the transition of "think tanks" from groups of smart people trying to come up with creative solutions to intractable problems to their present version as groups of rich arseholes trying to sway public opinions.
