2026년 제17호 태풍은 낭카(NANGKA)다. 8월 12일 밤 기준으로 확인할 때 가장 중요한 것은 ‘17호가 생겼다’는 번호 자체가 아니라 현재 위치와 이동 방향, 앞으로의 예상 경로가 한반도와 얼마나 가까워지는지다. 태풍은 발생했다고 해서 모두 한국에 영향을 주는 것이 아니다. 특히 며칠 뒤의 예상 위치는 계속
생계급여를 신청할 때 부모나 자녀의 높은 소득·재산 때문에 탈락하는 예외 기준이 단계적으로 사라진다. 다만 2026년 8월 현재 모든 가구에서 폐지된 것은 아니다. 2027년 하반기 중증장애인부터 우선 폐지하고, 2028년부터 노인 가구로 확대하는 방안이 검토되고 있다. 가장 중요한 차이는 ‘가족이 있으면 생계급여를 못
As of 2026-08-12, the drought in Gyeongnam has gone far beyond a simple shortage of rainfall. The average water storage rate at agricultural reservoirs in Gyeongnam has fallen to 33.3%, approximately 46.9% of the usual level, while Miryang, Geoje, and Haman have reached the highest agricultural water drought alert level, 'Severe.' The reason 200 water tanker trucks and 400 firefighters were deployed from 16 cities and provinces nationwide is also linked to the worsening water shortage.
KF 21 보라매는 개발 단계를 끝내고 2026년 9월부터 공군 인도 단계로 넘어갑니다. 현재 공개된 공군 관계자 설명과 8월 11~12일 최신 보도를 종합하면 연말까지 8대, 2028년까지 블록Ⅰ 40대를 순차적으로 전력화하는 일정입니다. 다만 첫 기체를 인도받는 날부터 곧바로 모든 임무를 수행하는 것은 아니며, 블록Ⅱ
As of 2026-08-12, the sharp rise in memory prices is undeniable. Recent data shows that over the past 12 months, average selling prices for DRAM rose by 400%, while NAND flash prices increased by more than 300%. However, these figures do not mean that laptop and smartphone prices will rise by 400% and 300%, respectively, or that every type of memory will continue becoming more expensive each month over the next 18 months.
The Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education will begin full-scale implementation of its 'RAS Gyeonggi Reading, Arts and Sports Education' initiative, which combines reading, arts and culture, and sports, starting in the 2 semester of the 2026 academic year. Total funding amounts to KRW 43,500,000,000. After incorporating feedback from students and schools during August, the office plans to expand actual school activities beginning in September. Rather than introducing another identical subject for every student, the initiative focuses on connecting existing curricula with school activities.
As of August 2026, laptop and PC prices face a greater risk of remaining elevated or rising further in the near term than of declining. However, this does not mean that “today is definitely the cheapest day to buy.” Even as memory shortages persist, individual models may become cheaper due to product generation changes, inventory discounts, exchange rates, and manufacturers’ pricing policies. The important question is why
As of 2026-08-12, it is difficult to conclude that the 'August financial market crisis' Scott Galloway warned about earlier this year has unfolded exactly as predicted. South Korea's stock market did experience leveraged position liquidations and a sharp decline in semiconductor stocks, but the 20~40% drop from its peak that Galloway predicted for the S&P500 has not occurred. There is another important distinction. The online claim that 'Korean retail investors mistook leverage for intelligence' should not be treated as part of Galloway's original forecast.
A forecast suggests that component costs for the iPhone 18 Pro 256GB model could increase by approximately 38% compared with its predecessor. Although this is often summarized as a '40% increase in costs,' it does not mean iPhone prices will rise by the same 40%. The biggest variable is the sharp increase in memory prices, and if Apple absorbs some of the additional costs, the increase in consumer prices could be smaller than the rise in component costs.
2026년 8월 11일 기준 콩고민주공화국의 이번 에볼라 유행은 확진 4,381명, 사망 2,011명까지 늘었습니다. 7월 23일 공개된 집계와 비교하면 19일 동안 사망자가 978명 증가해 사실상 두 배가 됐고, 감염 지역도 동부 5개 주로 넓어졌습니다. 이번 사태가 특히 위험하게 평가되는 이유는 단순히 누적 사망자가
