Berkeley, Friday, March 13, 2020 3:13 AM Definitely an odd day. Not because of intensity, nor even because I missed a deadline of lab report at 2 PM, but because two things: (i) I did very stupid mistake during a presentation, (ii) I did not fulfill to set up the equipment in the computer lab […]

Nationalism or Globalism?
Ask to the corona virus. You might find the answer there. Berkeley, Wednesday, March 11, 2020 1:37 AM
Simplicity: also is key in design
Berkeley, March 9, 2020 9:07 PM On a day, depending to how many things one has been exposed or how many things one has done, there are memories that are recorded by themselves, such as progress in an assignment, progress in a report, progress in a code, organizing/analyzing data, or less frequent the final product […]
τεχ is Art
Berkeley, Sunday, March 8, 2020 7:42 PM I wrote yesterday a stupid joke about artificial intelligence, but actually artificial intelligence is great. The most simple example that comes to my mind is to code a chart where we just plug in the data, and then we get the chart without having to code the production […]
Artificial Intelligence?
Berkeley, Saturday March 7. 2020 4:35 PM If someone, perhaps Turing, invented Artificial Intelligence, are we then Artificial Psychologists by trying to understand how it works, and so being able to apply it as a tool?
Time check of the day
Berkeley, Saturday, March 7, 2020 1:23 AM I am deeply grateful for having received crystal clear instructions today from an excellent professor K.C. about, perhaps, most basic concepts for a geomorphologist, but so key for directing my research. With a couple of charts in a white board it became clear to me difference between denudation […]
From vi TeX to vim LaTex. The Terminal might be the beginning
Berkeley, Friday March 6, 2020 2:32 AM This is just a, perhaps, catchy title that I though while receiving these manuals of Tex, LaTeX, and vi/Vim. Pragmatism: I woke up late today. 9:30 AM, after ignoring the 8:30 AM. There was a flood news in a radio program that actually I like, Forum in KQED, […]
Timing
Berkeley, Thursday, March 5, 2020 0:15 AM On time. So far I have kept up with the readings for my classes, though not necessarily on time for all the activities. It is good to receive a feedback, when someone does something wrong. I need to improve my punctuality. I have been arriving to a class […]
Linguistics
Berkeley, Wednesday, March 4, 2020 11:54 Pm I have not thought deeply about the need of studying a degree in linguistics, but I see more and more the need. It is not only about clarifying the language, evolving it, and other intrinsic technical aspects. It is about communication. A good applied mathematician, such as an […]
Metrics and matrices
Berkeley, Wednesday, March 4, 2020 11:41 PM Generating metrics and applying matrices is the core focus of my work, and so of days. I would say applying metrics as well. I am grateful with the inventor of the meter. It is a great scale and easy scalable itself. It is not a redundancy. It is […]
