Atlas Obscura | negative | gemini-flash-lite-latest | Published: 16:00 Jul 24, 2026 (Eastern)

Born in Las Tricias on the island of La Palma, José Mata became the only Canarian matador to achieve national prominence during the 1960s and early 1970s. After emigrating to Venezuela and later returning to Spain, he gained recognition as a refined and classical stylist in bullfighting. His career ended tragically on July 25, 1971, when he suffered a fatal gore during a corrida in Villanueva de los Infantes due to delayed treatment and inadequate medical facilities. Today, a bronze statue in Santa Cruz de La Palma honors the late matador.

I tried out OpenAI’s new AI keypad — which will be fun for some coders and slightly mystifying to everyone else

TechCrunch | neutral | gemini-flash-lite-latest | Published: 20:23 Jul 24, 2026 (Eastern)

OpenAI launched its first hardware product, a $230 customizable keypad called Micro developed in collaboration with Work Louder to pair with ChatGPT and Codex. The device features agent and command keys, a voice dictation button, and customizable settings via ChatGPT.
