No os machaquéis tanto el cerebro. El doctorado no implica ser buen docente. Pero sí da el rigor, la capacidad y profundidad que requiere enseñar. Y tampoco tener el título de grado implica ser buen docente….😉

Por supuesto, no ser doctor tampoco implica ser buen docente.

This paper gives a fancy name to a problem you can already feel in your bones

"The Tragedy of the Cognitive Commons." Checking AI output requires deep expertise. Deep expertise comes from doing grunt work for years. And grunt work is the first thing AI eats

So we're building systems that need expert supervision while dismantling the only known process for making experts

The paper calls the shared pool of human expertise the "cognitive commons." Every profession drinks from it. Nobody's refilling it.

By eliminating junior roles, each company is acting totally rationally, and the collective result: a profession that can't catch AI's mistakes anymore because it never learned to do the work in the first place

Who checks AI's homework in 15 years?

An Iranian man left this comment on my YouTube channel. This is without a doubt the single best explanation of the reality facing Iranian people today👇

"As an Iranian, I can tell you the situation is no longer just political—it's existential. We are trapped between two collapsing structures: one internal, one external. On one hand, we face a deeply dysfunctional government, led by the Supreme Leader and the Islamic Republic’s unelected institutions.

Decades of economic mismanagement, suppression of dissent, and brutal ideological control have alienated multiple generations. No one believes in reform anymore—because every attempt has either been co-opted or crushed. But here's the paradox: We are also terrified of regime collapse—because we've watched the aftermath of Western intervention in countries like Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Afghanistan. Each was promised freedom; each descended into chaos, civil war, or foreign occupation.

So no, we don't trust the U.S. or Israel. Not because we support our regime—but because we know how imperial powers treat ‘liberated’ nations in the Middle East.

Freedom, in their language, often means vacuum, fire, and permanent instability. Right now, many Iranians live with three truths at once: The Islamic Republic is morally and politically bankrupt. The alternatives offered by foreign actors are not liberation—they’re collapse.

A bad government is survivable. No government is not. We are not silent because we agree. We are cautious because we’ve learned—too well—what happens when superpowers decide to "help." In a sentence: Iran is a nation held hostage by its own regime, but haunted by the fate of its neighbors. We are stuck in a house we hate, surrounded by fires we fear more."

¡Un hallazgo para la historia!
Hemos descubierto la mayor muestra de soldados españoles de los tercios, con más de 20 compañías y un total de 2.540 soldados.
¡Hasta ahora no sabíamos prácticamente nada de los soldados anónimos!

Esto es una vergüenza, una absoluta vergüenza inaceptable. No sé si es responsabilidad de @GVAeducacio , de @GVAhisenda o de otra Conselleria, pero no tiene justificación q haya interinos que no estén cobrando a tiempo. @generalitat ,esto no puede ser 😡😡 https://t.co/ZEUvutgbkA

En el seu día els serveis secrets pakistanesos van crear els Taliban per aconseguir una certa "profunditat estratègica" davant l'Índia, ara en canvi sembla que entre tots dos li volen fer la pinça

🇷🇺🇺🇸 Putin calls fools those who expected good relations with the West after the USSR collapsed and admits he once believed it too.

He recalled how many Russians, including former Soviet officials, thought the fall of the USSR would lead to a civilizational reunion, “a family of nations” living in harmony despite differences. But “nothing of the sort,” he says.

Even he, as former Soviet foreign intelligence, was caught off guard when he became FSB director.

No és sorprenent que el reaccionarisme mes cru estigui esdevenint tan popular precisament entre els més joves, els que encara ho tenen tot per fer i només els hem deixat sorra com a material de construcció

[Javier Anta @XavierAnta]

Això només és un símptoma més d'un mal més profund: hem destruït completament les bases dels nostres consensos culturals, possiblement amb part de raó, però no hem estat capaços de reemplaçar-los amb res perquè la crítica ha estat tan brutal que el simple fet d'intentar construir

Israel is historically unique in that it struts like a hegemon but survives like a colony. It dominates its region militarily and psychologically, yet is so critically dependent on foreign support that if the lifeline is cut, the entire structure starts to collapse.

[Pseudohistòria contra Catalunya @pseudohcc]

És un objectiu fàcil, i no només per l'èxit aclaparador de la pseudohistòria a Espanya, sinó arran del desinterès absolut i crònic de la classe dirigent de Catalunya en invertir en el conreu la història nostrada i en la divulgació de la mateixa amb rigor.

[Javier Anta @XavierAnta]

No se fins a quin punt aquest punt de vista és freqüent entre els israelians, però si basen el dret a existir d'Israel en la força militar, aleshores legitimen l'ús de la força militar de tothom que vulgui canviar l'actual status quo a la regió, inclòs Iran

Punishment has always been a crucial aspect of cultural evolution - from the Church, totalitarian USSR, Indian castes & Western feminists.

Each group seeks to police & punish “bad behaviour”.

All this is heavily mediated by technological advances…

WOW!

The longer video in which Trump says Israel and Iran "don't know what the FUCK they are doing" is really important to watch.

He is really unhappy with Israel because as soon as a ceasefire was struck, Israel used the last hours of the war to massively attack Iran.

Then, one single missile from Iran appears to have been shot after the ceasefire - it landed nowhere and Trump says it may have been shot by mistake - and Israel is using it to restart the war and destroy the ceasefire Trump negotiated. And by that, also destroy Trump's credibility.

This is exactly what Israel did with all of the ceasefires in Gaza and Lebanon. It treats all ceasefires as one-sided - the other side has to stop fighting, while Israel is above the law and above all ceasefires.

Trump is also starting to discover the core of the problem: ISRAEL DOESN'T WANT PEACE AND DOESN'T WANT TO ALLOW THE US TO STAY OUT OF THE WAR ISRAEL UNNECESSARILY STARTED.

If Trump wants peace and for the US and Iran to strike a deal, he has no choice but to FORCE Israel to accept that America has to put America first.

If he doesn't, Netanyahu will make sure that Trump puts Israel first and drags the US into an endless war with Iran.

There are no other choices.
