"Cuando me hablan de la 'opresora' España, yo siempre me pregunto por qué los oprimidos indígenas apoyaron a España y no se rebelaron. Y sí un criollo rico llamado Bolívar. Algo no cuadra. Es que la realidad es justo la contraria"

For those unaware, SpaceX has already shifted focus to building a self-growing city on the Moon, as we can potentially achieve that in less than 10 years, whereas Mars would take 20+ years.

The mission of SpaceX remains the same: extend consciousness and life as we know it to the stars.

It is only possible to travel to Mars when the planets align every 26 months (six month trip time), whereas we can launch to the Moon every 10 days (2 day trip time). This means we can iterate much faster to complete a Moon city than a Mars city.

That said, SpaceX will also strive to build a Mars city and begin doing so in about 5 to 7 years, but the overriding priority is securing the future of civilization and the Moon is faster.

I came to Germany in 2016 to start my PhD. Germany then was a hotbed of scientific and engineering activity. And now in a span of 9 years I have had the incredible opportunity to witness a first world country on the cusp of becoming a great superpower systematically decimate itself through a series of bad policies each aimed at neutering itself further.
There is a common thread between all of these self neutering policies: they were all pushed by a few wealthy urban millennials who wanted to feel morally superior and wanted a pat on the back for being a “good person”. It is crazy how the narcissism of a select few can destroy an entire country. On some level I feel bad for hardworking ambitious Germans especially those who put in the hard work to build the country watching it all being ruined by a bunch of virtue signaling entitled fucks.

Si suena como que se está demoliendo un Estado, tiene aspecto de que se está demoliendo un Estado y a todos parece que se está demoliendo un Estado, no hay duda de que se está demoliendo un Estado. Cuando se acaben los conejos de la chistera no va a quedar piedra sobre piedra.

[European Association of Neurosurgical Societies @EANSonline50]

In Memoriam: Professor M. Gazi Yaşargil (1925-2025)
The world of neurosurgery mourns the passing of Professor Mahmut Gazi Yaşargil, who died today at the age of 99, just one month before what would have been his 100th birthday celebration.

Born on July 6, 1925, in Turkey, Professor Yaşargil’s journey from a young medical student to becoming “Man of the Century 1950-1999” represents one of medicine’s most remarkable careers. Hailed as the “Neurosurgeon of the Century (1950–2000)” by the journal Neurosurgery in 1999, his innovations revolutionised surgical approaches to conditions that were previously considered inoperable.

On behalf of the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies (EANS), we remember Professor M. Gazi Yaşargil not with sadness for what we have lost, but with gratitude for what he gave to the world.

We celebrate a life that fundamentally transformed neurosurgery and improved the lives of countless patients worldwide. His vision of precise, anatomically-informed microsurgery established principles that will guide neurosurgeons for generations to come. While his physical presence is no longer with us, his intellectual legacy lives on in every microsurgical procedure performed, every life saved through techniques he pioneered, and every neurosurgeon inspired by his example of excellence.

Rest in peace.
