The Lions Mane Jellyfish is the largest jellyfish in the world. They have been swimming in arctic waters since before the dinosaurs (over 650 million years ago) and are among some of the oldest surviving species in the world.
The largest can come in at about 6 meters and has tentacles over 50 meters long. Pretty amazing when you think these things have been swimming around for so long.
They have hundreds of poisonous tentacles that it used to catch passing by fish. it then slowly drags in it’s prey and eats it.
That is terrifying.

Aprendiendo español

Pensando en la posibilidad de dedicarle tiempo a algún proyecto de software libre, he estado leyendo sobre la guía de traducción de Gnome. Muy interesante, un tipo de problema al que en realidad nunca le había dedicado tiempo desde el punto de vista de lenguaje, interpretación, etc.

Como consecuencia a esa lectura, soy un poquito menos ignorante que ayer :)

1. En ocasiones me preguntaba por qué las siglas para Estados Unidos de América son: EE. UU. La razón es que al convertirse a siglas que provienen de un plural las reglas indican que se deben duplicar las letras.

2. Las comillas en español son distinta a las inglesas: «»

3. El nombre en español de «&» es: et (que es justamente la conjunción latina)
