Birthday. An act of celebration or an opportunity to give thanks Yesterday I reached my fifty-seventh birthday and spent some unplanned leisure time with my family. Usually, in the West, people celebrate birthdays with parties and gifts. So, I had my little celebration, and my phone received some messages full of emoticons of good wishes. By the way, even as I am writing these lines, I have not acknowledged receipt. It's not that I'm ungrateful or asocial - no! I'm just…

Will Bitcoin survive this crash? Today, after listening to the news about the economic and crypto market situation, I have mixed thoughts about the usefulness of Bitcoin. So, I (untimely) took a shower to organize my thoughts and convictions to write this article. It is customary to take a cold shower to clear the mind. To be honest, I'm like cats when it comes to cold water. In fact, my wife lectures me on the negative effect of the steaming hot shower. Yes, the cold of the…

Crypto regulation: security or freedom? I am a bit overwhelmed with what is going on in the crypto-verse. Although I'll be honest, I'm not at all surprised. On more than one occasion, I threw out several ideas about the regulations on the doorstep in defense of the launch of CBDCs. Last July 1st, the news transcended the Mainstream about the first comprehensive regulatory framework elaborated by the European Union for cryptocurrencies and Stablecoins.…

Bitcoin - is it time to board or jump ship? This is the question many will be asking themselves right now in the crypto-verse as the cyclical winter hits the market. I don't remember where I heard or saw the expression "the rats are the first to abandon the sinking ship." Perhaps, it is the two-legged rats who took their money and ran away in terror. Hahaha Out of jest, I say this because I wonder, where did the capital of almost three trillion dollars go? No doubt, they are…

What will be the next step in social media? I wonder, what will be the next step in social media? Yes, sharing with family and friends is the traditional and ideal way of socializing. Now technology has introduced a new dimension to human relationships. Of course, the leap was not so abrupt for the last generations. Although it certainly is, when compared to the known written history of humanity. In less than a hundred and fifty years, we went from village chats and postal…

What's behind a web page? Fun and passion Lots of code for your Web experience Have you ever inspected the code behind a simple web page like the one you are reading?

Digital censorship. The danger of abusing copyright in the digital age The right to information and digital censorship I just found out through an excellent video (in Spanish) about a lawsuit filed by four major publishers against the **Internet Archive** website. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EB7QUiHkx9g If you don't know this website, you should check it out at this link. https://archive.org/ Let me give you a briefing about it. **Internet Archive** is a non-profit…

Crypto ramblings - is Bitcoin Cash a mistake? New attack Bitcoin Cash is not a horrendous mistake I check (every morning) for the previous day's crypto market news and trending. Generally, the popular media gives little attention to **Bitcoin Cash**. However, this morning I heard (while typing on my computer) a negative opinion from an institutional investor in BTC. Holy crap! I was not at all surprised by a maximalist's comment, but I am intrigued by the timing of it. So, I…
