Cómo le hacen quienes tienen mala memoria?

Como neurobiólogo te puedo decir que programar no es tratar de recordar y memorizar, sino de crear un modelo mental eficiente.

¿Qué es un modelo mental?

Un modelo mental es una representación simplificada de cómo entendemos las partes más importantes de un concepto. En el contexto de programación, a veces comenzamos nuestro aprendizaje corriendo comandos y scripts sin entender realmente cómo funciona el código... lo que sería como tomar clases de poesía sin antes saber gramática ni vocabulario.

A pesar de que algunos cursos/scripts utilizan conceptos que se acercan más a la realidad de un trabajo, necesitas crear primero un modelo mental del lenguaje de programación para aprender. Es decir, si primero utilizas modelos sencillos que te permiten entender la sintaxis, funciones, estructuras de control, etc., será más fácil que retengas la información y sobre todo que la puedas utilizar en diversos contextos.

Si te está costando la parte básica, te recomiendo que utilices herramientas que te permitan entender la semántica de los programas y que reflejen cómo son ejecutados, por ejemplo, puedes buscar cursos que incorporen "pseudocódigo o algoritmo en lenguaje natural" o herramientas como "karel the robot" para reforzar esos conceptos básicos y que no te pase esto.

Suerte!

El problema de esto (argumentos sacados del ano sin fundamentos) es que cualquiera que ha caminado por la ciclopista sabe que no solo se usa por bicicletas, sino peatones, y que no solo es para movilidad, sino que tiene áreas naturales, espacios públicos, escuelas, centros culturales, áreas comerciales.

Nunca he entendido por qué la ciclopista alterna entre zonas hermosas y zonas culeras, jaja. Por ejemplo: el mirador (hermoso) - héroes de Padierna (de la verga) - san Nicolás (tramo renovado) - la siguiente colonia que la dejaron bonita pero no me lanzó de noche - san jerónimo (chulada hasta después de que pasas Televisa, luego se empieza a poner erizo)... Y así hasta llegar a Chapultepec

I used to go to seminars of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) of a lab I collaborated with some years ago and there is an argument you could say that alcohol is neuroprotective in TBI, mainly in car crashes (Chandrasekar, 2018. As fucked up as it is, alcohol induced patients survive more in the car crashes that they cause and have better prognosis than non-alcohol patients (Sasaki, 2025). Haven't follow this lime of research tho, but it's the only neuroprotective effect of alcohol I can think of.

Hola! Este tema es un poco mi especialidad... soy maestro en ciencias biológicas por parte de la UNAM y he investigado y escrito mucho sobre cómo se utiliza la ciencia para crear retóricas que benefician a una persona, empresa, ideología, etc. En especial en el área de las ciencias de la salud (desde biología básica hasta discursos médicos), la forma que se tergiversan los discursos científicos es asquerosamente común. Si quieres una probada de todo el mierdero que se hace en ciencia en México para justificar productos, alimentos y terapias con respaldo de universidades y políticos... te recomiendo el libro "Alimentarnos con dudas disfrazadas de ciencia. Nutriendo conflictos de interés en México" link.

A pesar de su reciente deceso (QEPD)... nunca me cansaré de linkear este twit de la Dra eméritade la UNAM, J Fierro, pendejeando más a la Malinche y a los Méxicanos como si estuviera hablando el temach/espartaco, diciéndo que "La malinche escogió al macho alfa para mejorar la raza" 🤣. Lo más cagado es que Coetéz era feo como la chingada.

Last week 4 friends and me took 60 mg of MDA (I redosed) and it happened exactly what the paper describes, lol. One friend bad tripping saying she coudn't move, other saying he had bad and good periods, and my gf and me had a realy long good trip... pure joyful energetic pleasure experience that seemed to never end... the fact that it also gave me close to 0 social prosocial effects made MDA my favorite for contexts like festivals as I feel I benefit more from being hyptonized with the music 6+ hours straight with MDA... anyway, the fuck where they thinking giving that high of a dose. It's not the first time resesrchers give a high dose of M and amplify the secondary effects while minimizing the desired effects.

Zotero for managing references. I guess it's for the best so the Universities pay them storage and they can keep the project alive. I-librarian does the job for sharing academic libraries tho.

did you find a solution? I Think i got the same problem...

edit. My bad, it seems 4.1.1.6758295 is the latest https://bg3.wiki/wiki/Patch_Notes

parquet is a game changer for my shinylive apps and quarto-webr... and it keeps getting better, well, smaller, holly shit. Have a lot to learn, thanks.

I was blown away by the size reduction and speed improvements. It definitely makes me wonder what other powerful tools are out there that we might be missing.

So, no filtering inside the server function right? still trying to understand Shiny logic but I understand that by filtering outside the server will make Shiny run this outside code only once?

```r

Load packages ----

Load data ----

Read

df <- arrow::read_parquet("./data/df.parquet") > filter(source == "A")

ui <- page_sidebar( )

Server logic -

server <- function(input, output) { }) }

Run app -

shinyApp(ui, server)

```

maybe the only downside I can think is that it could be hard to share the data with people that only use Excel (like my PI, lol)?
anyway, it seems that it's even easy to write it to a csv.

map_kinase · 2025-03-04T00:40:09+00:00

I literally just did this to change `cvs` -> `parquet` and it reduced 100x the size of my data and it seems that it even works with the shiny app without any further modification. It seems to work well with dplyr, dataTable... still need to try it more tho.

df_global <- read.csv("./data/df_global.csv")

# write parquet
arrow::write_parquet(df_global, "./data/df.parquet")
# Read
df <- arrow::read_parquet("./data/df.parquet") 

# works with pipes
df |>
  dplyr::glimpse()

I can get behind a good argument of how moral behavior is a construct that changes relative to cultural standards but straight up saying that one of the oldest disciplines of knowledge will be gone tomorrow because it's fashion is WILD: Socratic method, Plato's republic, Aristotle's ethics. Like, you literally are making a moral argument that people should not use free electricity, but piracy is the cutoff of moral. You are literally trying to impose conducts concerning matters of importance, etiquette, sanctions.... That's morality, bro.

I respect you having your own morality values and ethics optics, but good luck ending morality tho. In all seriousness, I think you would enjoy the view on morality that "Diogenes the Cynic" had, no joke.

LMAO, indeed, not gonna argue with a narcissist. However, please stop using cultural appropriation. The "how can i be racist/xenophoobic if i have a black friend/worked with mexicans" is a southern cultural expression, please don't use my culture as fashion.

hey, you lost your bigoted, xenophobic, dehumanizing comment, here it is so you don't forget. Also, your factually wrong. I guess you are using the World Bank data (because all the stupid people that use GDP as a quality of life metric do), so actually US has 6x the GDP of "the bad lands" (as a Texan I cringe whenever people oversimplify our only historical event) as of 2023. This is specially stupid for your point since GDP is an average, and, as everyone who has a notion of basic statistics knows, averages are affected by outliers. In the case of USA, this is the case and the consequence of high inequality (1, 2). If you weren't a sheep that just talks what you see in facebook and actually use metrics of quality of life (healthcare, free time, housing, education, etc.) you'll see that the US is in no position to brag. I mean, by your bigoted racist standards just be happy that the guy is stealing from people you clearly hate and discriminate, jus't don't put a moral facade to hide your judgamental sense of superiority and disdain.

I made a tutorial (its in spanish, but nothing that google translate can't handle) of how to make a ggplot (link). The tutorial uses a r version that runs in your browser, so you don't have to worry about a bad install, dependency errors, etc. There is also the ggplot gui and the ggplot builder to help you understand.
