People will always tell you that success is not made overnight. Fair to say, we can all understand that it's not instantaneous or something that comes out of nowhere. I cannot imagine someone being at home, after doing nothing –activity or meaningful-wise – and being completely unknown, then suddenly becoming a celebrity just for existing. You have to make something to be someone. It can be anything... Literally anything. Good, bad, controversial, not controversial... But something at the end of...

On being bored

Every now and then, because of my wife's job, I found myself seating in a coffee for what nowadays could be considered long periods of time—that is to say, two hours, or 3, tops. Today is one of those days, but what makes particularly interesting is that I didn't have time to prepare. I didn't have the chance to charge my Chromebook tablet before leaving, so I only brought my Kindle, my phone and earbuds. I started with some browsing and socials before my cold brew arrived. Once the caffeine sou...

Finding home away from home

Trying to be at peace with this fucking weird nostalgia of being away from houses that are not my house but still feel like home

Unsociably social

I'm online all the time, I'm just not available for you all the time

On forgiveness

I cannot remember exactly when this came to my mind. I mean, it was today, but I cannot pinpoint at which moment today –as it has happened with most things since the pandemic. I just got the thought burnt into my brain. It was screaming loudly and with an intensity that's now lost but I can recall vividly. It said: And I know it's not as easy as it reads. I mean, I would be the first one to say fuck that, there's things that cannot be forgiven and it's something that's hard-coded in me. You scre...

On writing nonsense with Oscar

I don't feel the pass of time... Until I return here and try to make something out of my thoughts. That it takes this long is not something I despise or hate, it's just something that happens. That I'm still here, and still me, being able to come back to my corner of the internet is a thing I underestimate. I don't really feel the need to write when morning comes, but I would be lying if I say that I don't think about it. It's all caused by this juxtaposition of my character: I wish I could writ...

The one where I meet again with old friends

For how often I use them, it's ironic how much I hate social apps. Why? Well, there's nothing social about them anymore. It's just memes and some bragging here and there. Maybe it's just me not wanting to connect? Or maybe I'm not able to do it in the way the apps set me up to do it. Giving a like to a photo doesn't mean Hey, pretty cool. Where's that and what are you up to? Then again, if I received a comment like that I may forget to reply. Anyways... Lately I've been trying to change. I'm try...

I miss the old internet

It finally happened today: I got bored of the internet. Let's be honest, what's there to do? Other than mind-numbly scrolling the feed of social apps, I mean. And what's social about that? The most social I get is when I share a fucking thousand short videos with my friends and to be honest I don't think they see all of them, 'cause sometimes I don't do it with theirs, either. And after searching which square or circle –squircles, even– to press next on the screen of your phone, you go back to t...

Lumiere and Sora are giving AI video super powers

While I've talked about AI in general and also focused a little bit on how it's being used to make music, the topic today is certainly one I thought we would have to wait more to see. Quite literally, to see. On January 23th, the Research Arm of Google AI efforts published a video to YouTube announcing Lumiere, what they call A Space-Time Diffusion Model for Video Generation. What does that mean? Well, from their research paper they tell us it's the following: If that's something you can underst...

Rambling about AI

I was discussing with my friend Pablo what to write here next. You know, it's been a while... again. — Have you done your tour of AI chat bots?— Nope, and I don't really think I will, I said to Pablo. — Why not? Maybe you should write about that, then. I've been reluctant to touch on the topic of AI because it's been discussed once and once again, everywhere. Of course I'm interested in the area and its technical advances over the last years – I think anyone that considers itself a geek or nerdy...

How I am coping with COVID

Hi guys, nice to see you again. Well, to be blunt, it's nice to think that someone is seeing this. But that doesn't deny the fact that something about this is nice. For me. And for you. Hopefully. Anyways. During this time with COVID, a lot has been said about how this is the year that you have the time to do whatever you didn't have time to do before. And while I think that's true, there are certain aspects of what's happening in the world that can't be accounted for; to give you an example, I ...

Blog en tiempos de COVID-19 II: La venganza

Que tal lectorsillos, buen dia. He vuelto. Por fin pude concentrarme lo suficiente como para poner en orden unas cuantas líneas aqui. Les dire la verdad..Esta es la segunda vez que escribo este post. ¿Por qué? Pues resulta que la forma anterior en que estaba escrito — que por cierto fue escrito hace 15 días — era una versión muy simplona y repetitiva del post anterior que contiene actualizaciones respecto al COVID. Y como no iba a serlo, si realmente no ha pasado mucho y la situación no ha mejor...

Let's talk about Joe Black

Just recently I watched Meet Joe Black again. I don't know how long it's been since the last time, but I know it's been at least a few years. And woah, was it different from what I remembered. You know how they say that after you grow a certain age you start appreciating stuff you did not before? Well, it immediately rang a bell after seeing this movie again. It's not as boring, not as cheesy and I enjoyed it in a much different way than before — but still as long as I remembered. I found it qui...

Blog en tiempos de COVID-19

Que tal lector, buen dia. Viernes... por fin. Para mi, no sé para ti. Si te encuentras leyendo esto, tenemos de dos opciones: Si estás dentro del primer grupo... Tss. Ni que decirte, bro. Pero, ¡pero!, si estas dentro del segundo grupo de lectores, te mando un saludo desde el inframundo. Ven, sientate, déjame te platico la historia del fin. Estamos atravesando la peor crisis en la historia de la humanidad debido a una pandemia que fue, supuestamente, originada por un chinito que quiso disfrutar ...
