So a child should never read a book? nor watch an educational video? Alexa and other assistants are just tools. Tools can be used against people, yes, but they also can be used to improve people's lives. This particular example doesn&#

The argument of how few Spaniards fought in Tenochtitlan has been used in both sides. Here in Mexico is common for pro-native and anti-hispanic proponents to try to picture the evil few Europeans who got advantage of their technology agains

I’m from Mexico and even though my country has some bad immigrant reputation I haven’t had any problem traveling several times to the US, Europe and some Latin American countries. What countries had you had bad experiences with?

I never thought about it in that way, but my dog trained me too. When she's done with her business outside, she will scratch the carpet, I learned to open the door when I hear that noice, I never taught her that, so she trained me.

Rarely the meaning of a technology name is "obvious", this particular name is pretty misleading (every single tutorial about the topic starts explaining that serverless doesn't really mean serverless). The first time I heard

Wouldn’t a decentralized social network be more prone to delvelop more extremist groups? I mean if anyone can create an instance, then extremists from all the political spectrum will be able to moderate their own instances, in other words t

I count with one hand all the technologies that have blown my mind: discovering the electronic parts of my toys, playing a NES game in my friend's PC, my first contact with the internet, the first iPhone. But discovering Google Earth w

Agree, I'm from Mexico and over here Uber had to change their payments methods. They started allowing cash payments to prevent missing a good portion of the market. And yes, I've used WhatsApp since the early years and I never pai

How do you handle aesthetics? Sounds like a really fun project but a big challenge, at least for me, would be to make it look pretty and not like a Sunday hack.

I reached a point where I don't know what to believe, everything cures and causes cancer at the same time, every week I'll ran into an article about a new study contradicting some random common knowledge. I guess the key is to liv

It's always nice to find this kind of article where the author synthesizes a lot of knowledge in a single place. I just have an advice, please don't mix upper case and lower case for programming names in your text, it makes it a l

So they aren't weird for the Asian mind? I doubt it.

I would love to see something similar applied to Mexico. The scale would have to be a lot bigger, and I guess it would be a lot more dangerous since we are literally facing wars for territory over here, taking soldiers out of the battlefiel

Same here, I'm typing this with my late 2013 mbp, this was my first Mac. And it's amazing how it keeps working perfectly just like the first day, I haven't noticed any slowdown, it doesn't have any noticeable hardware is

The title is misleading, if you read the article the author doesn't try to convince us that motivation doesn't exist, but that motivation is not necessary to get things done.

Sometimes too much empathy feels fake, and fake empathy gets the opposite result. My bank has started calling me in a more "cheerful" tone. They ask how my day is, and then they express how happy they are to hear I'm fine. I

In Mexico I never heard of Master System, my first console was a NES and it was not until the SEGA Dreamcast and PlayStation came out that I knew of other consoles. Nintendo had a monopoly over here.

I decided to do something similar after reading a Chinese Sci-fi novel (The Three Body Problem) it was a really cool novel but I found it difficult to retain a lot of the characters' names, I had to go back in the book several times lo

Having the possibility to ask this question to Google Now, Siri or Alexa and getting a real answer would be a cool Easter Egg.

You have a really cartoonish view on this. They were not killed because it made God angry. You have to put context on it. You have to understand that religion was really important (maybe the most important thing) for the people of that peri

Are those privileges really given to Asians? Isn't there a little possibility they have reached those privileges by themselves? Why should a student who has worked hard all his life be punished for being Asian? Why don't we try in

I can give you a couple of examples, but be advised they are really childish, the kind of humor you could find around teenagers. 1. "A la larga te acostumbras" Translates to:"You'll get used to it in the long term"

Can I make a wish? As a non-native speaker it would be great to have a consistent alphabet, it wouldn't matter the order of the letters, a letter would always correspond to a single sound, specially with vocals. If the Latin alphabet i
