A new activity to make you the envy of the parish like the 12 Metre Freestyle Gangster you are! “What do you know about 24MHz?”“Magic. Whole lotta magic.” Cyrus. The Warriors. 1979. This weekend just past I set out on a SOTA activation. My first in a couple of months. This was to be no […]
Readers of this blog are people of rarefied tastes and great education and learning, and we should not be surprised to discover there is a high degree of consensus between them about matters of Truth, Justice, and the Best OSR-adjacent Actual Play podcats and YouTube videos. In my last post I...
Cómo los modelos de lenguaje erosionan el diálogo interior, sustituyen la conversación humana por un sucedáneo y transforman silenciosamente nuestra manera de pensar y dar sentido al mundo.
What is sin in the most basic of senses? Is it akin to the law whereas if one breaks a rule one has sinned, or is there something deeper and more logical about sin that defines it more of a moral problem than an ethical one. In this essay we look at the fundamental of sin so we understand the metaphysics of sin.
Confiar ciegamente en la tecnología como solución a todos los problemas sociales y ambientales es un mito peligroso. Nos paraliza, evita afrontar los cambios estructurales necesarios y genera nuevos impactos ambientales y desigualdades.
There are four principles you can live your life by: Truth is the pursuit of the scholar, the scientist, and the cynic: accurate, complete, and unsparing knowledge of ourselves and the world we live in. Utility is the goal of the economist, the engineer, and the politician: to make the world...
This post was written with AI assistance. Since pathfinding gave the fox routed walks, one flatness kept bothering me: she is always in front of everything. Every scene’s render function ended with the same line — draw the background, draw the objects, draw the fox last — so she floats over the...
The level of competitiveness varsity was first applied to sports in 1891. Varsity is a clipping of univarsity, a regional pronunciation of university found in slang since the 1700s. The institution for higher education university was borrowed into English from Norman French université around 1300....
At five years old, I had my first out-of-body experience. I wasn't afraid. I remember feeling loved, calm, curious, and completely aware. What began as a childhood experience became a lifelong journey of observation, meditation, and discovery. This is the story of how one extraordinary moment shaped the way I understand fear, awareness, and consciousness.
When trust breaks, the pain runs deep. Yet many couples discover that trust can grow back after serious hurt. Not quickly or easily, but stronger, more honest, and more resilient than before.
The reason is simple, since no one seems to know what actually means, and there are other symbols available that cause much less (i.e. no) confusion, it is time to retire the notion of a natural number. Let me explain. Everyone in mathematics seems to have their own opinion on whether 0 is a...
If you are from India, you may have seen the e-rickshaw battery videos this week on how e-rickshaws are getting so called “hacked” & disabled and India govt banning the vendor apps allowing for Battery Management System access. TBH its not even a hack. Its a safety feature to probably...
This post was written with AI assistance. Vania’s dialogue audio has played since January 2025: play the line’s WAV, loop a three-frame talking animation for exactly as long as the audio lasts, done. It worked, but it was the same mouth-flapping loop whether the line was “Evviva!” or a...
Didn’t Watch: See Seasonal Impressions I watched way too much anime this season… 22. I Made Friends with the Second Prettiest Girl in My Class — D+ They start dating in six episodes. Also let’s rank all the girls by how pretty they are. 21. That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime S4 — Ongoing...
All creative people are nuts. On some level, I don’t really understand what this show was going for. It jumped through time, the titular character barely shows up for half the show, it keeps introducing new geniuses in totally different fields, and… none of this particularly seems to have paid...
Post-apocalyptic Japanese Three Kingdoms. This ruled so hard. Shows like this are why I watch anime. Clearly created by someone who loves Three Kingdoms lol. Truly recalled the most entertaining aspects of the book. The politicking. The speeches. The backstabbing. Most of the wars being won by...

La exigencia de una perfección algorítmica y el miedo al tribunal digital están domesticando la escritura. Cuando se anula el derecho a la duda y al error, el ensayo muere.
El decrecimiento no es una opción ideológica, es una respuesta a una evidencia física: el
metabolismo de la economía humana ya ha excedido la capacidad de regeneración de la biosfera.
This post was written with AI assistance. The oldest documented limitation in VaniaVolpe was that the fox walks in a straight line. Click across the playground and she marches right through the sandbox, the slide, whatever the scene says is not ground. It had its own design note (MOVEMENT.md)...
Welcome to the blog. This site is served by a small pure-Go engine: markdown posts in _posts/, rendered on the fly with goldmark, laid out with plain html/template files, and deployed to Kubernetes with ap. Each post is a directory, so images can live right next to the words: _posts/hello-world/...
Die Philosophie hat ihre Exklusivität über fundamentale Fragen verloren. Doch das eigentliche Problem liegt nicht in diesem Verlust, sondern darin, dass ihre Selbstbeschreibung diesem Wandel bis heute nicht gefolgt ist.
FIDE banned Vladimir Kramnik for two years after the chess legend was found guilty of bullying and false cheating accusations. A bug in Rust Coreutils’ cp command broke Ubuntu ISO builds, forcing a revert to GNU Coreutils. In Michigan, residents are pushing to recall local officials over a...

Una reflexión sobre cómo la vida interior comenzó a incorporarse a los mecanismos de valoración, circulación e interpretación propios de la sociedad contemporánea, transformando la relación entre experiencia, lenguaje y reconocimiento.
