Forseen past and future events: not that easy.

Now it is the dinosaur's weight but for sure this won't be the last predictive model under review. Actually the models are not that bad, but... But to get actual numbers you need to compute. There is the problem: computing is based on approaching an approximation over and over again. Not so long ago flaws on calculations were found on programs which ingenieers used careless for designing all sort of objects. These were no sophisticated formulae but finding square roots.

Gina says

"Gina says" on String Wars  reminds me of the Bourbaki phenomenon in math. Though, so far, the endings are quite different, the initial pourpouses are (were) quite similar: to clarify the topic on one hand and to set foundational grounds on the other hand. I wonder if having internet and blogs those days, Bourbaki would have ended up being "Bourbaki says"  as well.

¿Un espejismo?

How much real is the buzz over the net? Picture "borrowed" from The Big Picture.

Do you dream of a City at the End of Time?

Pandemia

Al parecer todo esto del N1H1 es una pamplina. A pesar de llegar a la calificacion tipo 6, los medios de comunicacion lo tratan como una nimiedad. Es increible que a todos se les pase que la OMS ha fallado en la contencion de esta enfermedad. ¿Que ocurrira cuando sea letal?

What's a no-win situation?

When your wife asks you which clothing fits her best. You can feel the adrenaline. Perhaps I should get that game theory course.

Just missed Star Wars Day

May the 4th be with you.

Antena Huelva Radio- NOTICIAS -

He sabido hace apenas una semana que mi compañero de clase en los Salesianos de Huelva ha muerto. Aunque habíamos perdido el contacto nos volvimos a ver hace ya años en Sevilla brevemente. Era un chico estupendo, lo recuerdo hablando conmigo en el patio de cosas científicas y, sobre todo, jugando a baloncesto. Le encantaba tirar desde el medio campo y la encestaba, era un especialista. Siento haber perdido el contacto contigo. Te echaré de menos. Compartimos 8 años estupendos. Tu amigo, Escudero como tú me llamabas.
