Reality is dead. And we have killed it.

May Nietzsche forgive us (that is, me) for disrespectfully paraphrasing him, but it’s time to proclaim that "Reality is dead. And we've killed it. " In other words, the illusion that we have created has become so real that we have forgotten that it is an illusion, and, for that reason, we have forgo…

“La realidad ha muerto. Y nosotros la hemos asesinado”

Con perdón de Nietzsche, por irrespetuosamente parafrasearlo, llegó la hora de proclamar que “La realidad ha muerto. Y nosotros la hemos asesinado”. Dicho de otra manera, la ilusión que nosotros hemos creado se ha vuelto tan real que nos hemos olvido que se trata de una ilusión y, por eso mismo,…

You can't teach a person who refuse to learn

You can’t help those who do not want to be helped and you can’t teach those who do not want to learn. Unfortunately for me, I learned those lessons late in life. In fact, I am just now learning them, so I mistakenly still believe that we should help the needy and educate those who need it. But, alth…

No se puede ayudar a quien no quiere ser ayudado

No se puede ayudar a quien no quiere ser ayudado ni se puede enseñar a quien no quiere aprender. Lamentablemente para mí, aprendí esas lecciones tarde en mi vida. De hecho, recién ahora las estoy aprendiendo, por lo que erróneamente aún creo que se debe ayudar al necesitado y educar a quien lo neces…

Y lo que …

The end of the world as we know it is near (not a joke or a prophecy)

Western Civilization, now technologized and globalized, already has an expiration date: it will disappear in the coming decades and it will be replaced by a meta artificial intelligence (Meta-IA) in control of the planet, while each human being will live enclosed within his/her own techno-bubble, ac…

If I say, “I know it”, then I don’t know it

A situation I face too often (for my taste) when presenting a new topic or a new idea to a group of students (whether young or adult) is the reaction "I already know that", followed by the mention of some kind of "source", mostly a movie, where a topic remotely related to the new idea previously pre…

Si yo digo que ya entendí, entonces no entendí nada

Una situación con la que me encuentro con demasiada frecuencia (para mi gusto) al presentar un nuevo tema o una nueva idea a un grupo de estudiantes (sean jóvenes o adultos) es la reacción "Eso ya lo sé", seguida de la mención de alguna fuente, mayormente una película, en la que aparece un tema remo…
