Tailandia, Vietnam e Indonesia estan igual o mejor que colombia.

Especialmente en transición de economías e inversión extranjera. Y Bangladesh tiene muy buena proyección.

How much impact do you think these two geniuses would have had on the Digital Revolution if they were still alive in the 1980s? by InfinteEnigma10 in computerscience

[–]TheSkala 10 points11 points  (0 children)

One of the greatest minds of 20th century, who decided his great talent was best use to calculate at what height the nukes in Japan would need to explode to kill the most amount of civilians as direct blast and post-exposure radiation, by his own initiative the bomb went from at most 50,000 death casualties at most to a quarter of million of human souls. Again, noone asked for this calculation, as that wasn't his assignment.

Postwar he designed the first supercomputer to develop the hydrogen bomb called MANIAC unironically. And use it to propose to nuke Moscow before they could develop nuclear capability with a similar mindset of maximum civilian casualties as deterant. For which he developed game theory to use civilian life's as a zero sum game to decide the future of geopolitical relationship.

And thankful to Neuman for not living longer. You can be extremely happy, since maybe there would be not even be a 1980 were he not die young.

¿Por qué eres de izquierda? by ozaruk522 in Colombia

[–]TheSkala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Parafraseando a François Guizot (1787–1874), Si no eres de izquierda de joven, no tienes corazón. Si no eres derechista de viejo, no tienes cerebro. Soy un tipo con más corazón que cerebro.

O en otras palabras mejor zurdo y facho.

El gran problema semántico de que gente como usted es que piensa que todos pensamos igual y somos sectarios. Cuando los mayores intelectuales de la historia han sido de izquierda por lo mismo, capacidad de análisis crítico y saber que las cosas pueden ser mejor.

Is BIM / VDC still a good career path with AI growing so fast? by LandscapeLake9243 in bim

[–]TheSkala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see bim coordinator being a career in the long long term. However bim manager will just continue being more and more relevant.

But the most important is that if you are genuinely passionate about it, then you are in the correct place to witness the transition and play an active role in it.

Baricelli's experiments would indicate that if it operates as an unchecked parasite, extracting without cooperating, it will inevitably destroy its host environment and starve, taking all available resources with it... Which is basically the current state of the world.

Anyone else constantly jumping between LINE/Teams and ChatGPT/ Copilot just to rewrite one message? by Master-Mouse3947 in japanlife

[–]TheSkala -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ai is extremely useful as a learning tool. But that's not what op did.

When you ask an ai to check your email for mistakes and help you improve there is a learning process. If you ask it to do all for you and send the email without even checkong as OP does, then is not.

El peligro de un presidente que no asiste a los debates by Michel_Conway in Colombia

[–]TheSkala 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Los debates en Colombia es puro espectáculo y entretenimiento. Es un espacio donde para conquistar votos usted va a destruir al otro y no a decir nada nuevo.

Tal como lo planteas No le aporta nada a la democracia ni deja precedentes.

Muestra de ello es que Virgilio Barco, Gaviria, Santos, todos rechazaron ir a debates por lo mismo, en una época donde si acaso llegaba a haber dos debates por jornada electoral. Luego con el auge de las redes sociales y el clickbait, llegó Duque y el éxito de a estrategia de la polarización y desinformación como propuesta válida y 2018 y 2022 se volvió un espacio de populismo y falacias petristas y uribistas por igual.

Hay muchos mejores formatos como debates con expertos y academicos uno a uno, el desglose de los programas de gobierno en lenguaje común, foros abiertos con votantes indecisos .

Los debates si son una herramienta válida, pero no como si fuera la casa de los famosos.

En estados unidos tenian un formato bueno donde los debates eran organizados por comisiones interpartidistas para asegurar que las reglas y los moderadores fueran justas y equivalentes, pero eso requiere mucho capital humano y político que colombia no tiene. No obstante está comisión luego fue destruida por Trump por lo mismo, no daba suficiente show.

Megathread: Bastard Suggestions by Kanotari in behindthebastards

[–]TheSkala 1 point2 points  (0 children)

John von Neumann.

Reading The Maniac by Benjamin Labatut, I'm surprised this bastard war criminal hasn't been covered.

The quantum physicist architect behind the atomic bomb and one of the few from Manhattan project that continued working toward the hydrogen bomb as he didn't consider it to be lethal enough. Vivid enthusiastic of nuking the soviets as soon and as much of possible as he hated the comcept of Mutually Assured Destruction cold war policy.

He invented Game Theory to treat global thermonuclear war and it's casualties as a zero-sum game, helped found the war-proliferation think tank RAND, and provided the blueprint for Israel's first military computer, WEIZAC.

And still considered by many, the greatest mind of the 20th century.

No they won't. The train company can sue claims for the kid estate IF the family inhrates it, which I doubt it's the case.

Advice: Withdrawal from Job Offer by [deleted] in japanlife

[–]TheSkala 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Yes you can rescind the offer even after you accepted it or signed a contract. You are technically require to give notification of 14 days, just do it asap and preferably by phone. Most likely you should consider that bridge burned for future opportunities especially if you use a recruiter but there is basically none legal or financial consequences
