LOL, as a non-native English speaker, reading this reminds me of EXACTLY the same problem of translating many things, but more precisely, computer articles and software development. There’s a huge amount of terms that are difficult to trans

WTF? What about pedestrians? Are they walking in full darkness? This seems to be totally oriented to cars. I find American cities incredibly dark by night. Walking around feels too dark and unpleasant.

I see a lot of pro/con discussion about PIPs in the comments, and wonder how much is a US/Other places thing. I think that the “believe in the PIP process” is a very typical US thing, driven in part by their labor laws, that is cu

According to surveys, most people in the US prefer to refer themselves as “Hispanic”, though there’s a generational change https://www.pewresearch.org/race-and-ethnicity/2024/09/12/u-...

Interestingly, there’s a word in Spanish for people from the USA that’s “Estadounidense”, literally “Unitedstatian” which is widely used (at least in Spain) I find it a fascinating word and a way of precisely naming to keep the “American” w

that's not the point of Brave New World? We like to interpret it like a dystopian book (and I still think it is), but the book challenges you into explaining WHY. It certainly plays the "moral" card, and more back when it was

I remember when I was a kid in Spain (in the late 80s, perhaps up to early 90s) cinemas where this was still possible. You could enter at any time, watch the movie, and even remain and watch it a second time if you want. It was also only ad

You NEVER do that in one go, you need to split it in several deployments. Dropping a column is relatively straightforward, in two steps. First deploy a version of the code that doesn’t use the column, then release the migration dropping the

Well, it depends. They set the policy to say you should go work 3 days a week at the office even if you are a single member of a team in a different country. Something that's not so rare, after the pandemic and the way the teams are co

The world GDP is (according to my Google search) 95 TRILLION, not billion. Market cap is also quite different from GDP, because market cap measures (sort-of) wealth. It’s like comparing the value of your house compared of your yearly income

It’s strange for me that it presents that the way to look at “the Russian empire” is through the lens of “Iberoamerican empires”, but never explains exactly what that means.

In large corporations promotions are frequently way more a product of “playing the game” than of doing work that’s related with your work. It makes a tiny bit of sense from the point of view that sometimes promotions involve developing a ne

Also Rick and Morty is an incredibly nihilistic show. The character dynamics are terrible (to each other), and that limits the long term capacity for stories. They were able to pull a good few seasons, but it starts looking as the same dest

The interesting bit about this kind of games is that you don't need state-of-the-art tech, and art at this point is mostly about choices, not necessarily about what's technically feasible. The best example is the usage of orchestr
