ROBO A CROACIA: Errores en física. Si nos vamos a poner detallistas con el tema de los sensores de las pelotas, de si hubo un mínimo roce y aplicar el reglamento al milímetro, también tenemos que aplicar física al milímetro. La pelota Trionda usa tecnología de balón conectado con un sensor de movimiento de 500 Hz que da información al VAR sobre movimiento/contactos del balón. Ese sensor no “ve” una cabeza: mide aceleraciones, rotaciones y patrones de movimiento. Por eso, si la pelota pasa muy cerca de una cabeza, puede haber perturbaciones aerodinámicas, vibraciones o ruido mecánico. En principio, eso puede generar una señal pequeña. Que el algoritmo la clasifique como contacto ya es otra cosa. Si el sensor muestra una señal típica de impacto —pico brusco, alta frecuencia, cambio instantáneo de rotación o trayectoria, sincronizado con la posición de la cabeza—, entonces la anulación es defendible aunque en TV no se vea. Las cámaras tienen parallax, motion blur, pocos frames comparado con el sensor, y un contacto mínimo puede ser invisible. Si el sensor solo muestra una oscilación ínfima y no hay cambio coherente de trayectoria, ni deformación, ni imagen compatible, ni firma de impacto, entonces NO se debe anular un gol. Ahí se estaría convirtiendo una herramienta probabilística en un oráculo. A Croacia le anularon un empate tardío tras una revisión del VAR polémica vinculada a una detección marginal del balón. Una cosa es una señal clara de impacto; otra es un “blip” diminuto. Sobre los árbitros: no necesitan ser físicos, pero sí deberían tener formación suficiente en limitaciones de medición, la cual OBVIAMENTE NO TIENEN. Un árbitro moderno que usa sensores, semiautomático, tracking 3D y VAR debería entender conceptos básicos: margen de error, falso positivo, calibración, umbral, sincronización temporal y diferencia entre dato bruto e interpretación algorítmica. Si no, termina pasando esto: la tecnología deja de asistir al arbitraje y empieza a reemplazar el juicio crítico. En conclusión, no se ve contacto y el único argumento es “el sensor detectó un roce ínfimo” que, como ya mencioné, por el gráfico se puede ver que está mas relacionada a diferencias de presión en el aire al pasar cerca de una cabeza que por un toque con la misma (si la hubiera tocado se vería un pico muy alto y brusco en la imagen). Se está usando tecnología muy avanzada con árbitros que no la saben comprender (ni el propio VAR). Ningún físico diría que ese gráfico muestra un toque. En una jugada decisiva, la carga de la prueba debería ser altísima. Sensor sí, fe ciega en el sensor, NO.

The world consumes Jamaican culture at an industrial rate, yet the very people who created it are told to tuck it away just to get a seat at the table. It’s 2026, the prejudice against Patois should be done and dusted. You can’t claim to be proud of your Jamaican identity while looking down on the very language that makes us unique.🫠

Replying to @yowtajon
If you think Patois sounds dunce, you’re confusing language with intellect. You can speak “properly” and say nothing of value, or you can speak Patois and be the smartest person in the room.

1/12 Hey everyone, big news from Jamaica this week (Dec 2025). The island is still recovering from Hurricane Melissa – a brutal Category 5 that slammed in late October. Strongest ever to hit Jamaica directly: 180+ mph winds, massive flooding, landslides. – at Jamaica

In response to Hurricane Melissa, Direct Relief is sending 60 pallets of essential medical supplies—valued at $1M—to Jamaica’s Ministry of Health. Direct Relief is on the ground with partners to assess needs and support relief efforts.

Suggesting that people going to St. E today don't go to Black River: 1. The roads in and out are narrow and influx of vehicles is just going to cause more problems. What's needed most is road clearing to create greater access. You'll be stuck in traffic for hours 2. There are MANY other communities that need help and those people so far neglected to the point they are making their way to BR in order to get aid and then BR people fighting them, the outsiders. Its bad. Williamsfield, Ponside, Newell, Barbary Hall, Middle Quarters etc etc. Pleas RT

Excited to relaunch PPS Jamaica, an idea I built over a decade ago to help Jamaicans report and avoid potholes. I've been using it myself to safely navigate roads, especially during rain. ✅ Android + Web live 🍎 iOS coming soon!
🚨 Pothole Positioning System (PPS) is now live! You can now report and track road issues directly from your phone or desktop. ✅ Available on Google Play ✅ Live on the web 🚧 iOS version is built and currently in testing + review — coming soon! Links below:
