a todos los que me siguen... a todos los que me leen... a todos los que me buscan... a todos...

A TODOS: el día 16 de febrero, luego de una brutal tormenta, se cortó internet, se cortaron las líneas telefónicas, por ende no hubo Wi-Fi, ni conexiones de ninguna índole… me llevó dos días entender dónde estaba el problema, ya que muchos vecinos del barrio, estaban en las mismas condiciones… acudí a Telecom Personal y también lo hice a Personal Telecom, ya que no sé dónde comienza una empresa y donde termina la otra… te ofrecen un teléfono que te indica que tienes que marcar 1, o bien, marcar 2, o bien, marcar 3, o bien marcar 4, o bien, marcar 5, o bien marcar 6, pero en algún momento serás atendido por alguien, a quien jamás verás… luego de variar por la escala, alguien atendió… dijo que el cable que conecta al barrio es viejo… dijo que ahora hay una novedosa fibra óptica, que curiosamente, también es un cable, pero nuevo… dijo que el costo del cambio era importante… dijo que había que consultar al servicio técnico… dijo muchas cosas que no recuerdo, porque fueron demasiadas… dijo que tal vez el día 27 de febrero harían una visita para ver de qué se trata… dijo que el costo actual era escaso y que al ser todo nuevo, debía aumentar, casi al doble, poco más, seguramente… dijo que había beneficios suculentos, y otros no tanto… dijo, y también dijo, y volvió a repetir, por si no se entendió… a nadie le importó que no hubiese servicio durante largos días… según dijeron, todo se compensa en la factura, lo cual está por verse… como sea, los días pasan y no hay teléfono, no hay internet, no hay Wi-Fi, no hay conexión alguna… los blog´s han quedado inaccesibles, sin actualizar, pero a nadie le importa… no me he tomado vacaciones porque no hay dónde ir, ya que la mayoría de las rutas están cortadas, por lluvias recurrentes y tormentas consecuentes… tampoco he salido de la casa porque la misma no puede quedar sola, ya que hay vigías que marcan la casa, y luego roban, sin que nadie haga nada… además, una casa sola es pasible de ser ocupada por indeseables asociados al poder del narcotráfico, que es socio del poder político… el estado dejó de existir hace dos meses y medio, gracias a la nueva administración anarcocapitalista, es decir, primero instala la anarquía donde antes hubo un estado de derecho, luego habla de capitalismo para los amigos del poder, que se apoderan de todo y someten a los mortales a sus designios… en definitiva, nos hemos quedado sin país, ya que cada uno está librado a su suerte… no hay garantías constitucionales… no hay a quien quejarse… no hay a quien reclamar (por nada)… no hay derechos ni humanos ni ciudadanos… la legislatura ha dejado de existir, porque muchos se han vendido a la nueva administración… mientras tanto, la justicia tampoco existe porque es inaccesible… y en el poder ejecutivo se ha instalado la demencia… la sociedad argentina está sucumbiendo a la estupidez humana de la clase política reinante… dentro de poco tiempo, nuestro país, pasará a ser una entelequia… por favor, tenelo en cuenta, porque no sé qué será de nosotros… el editor… PD: y esto recién comienza… lo de internet es sólo una muestra… PD2: gracias al equipo técnico de Telecom Personal… es necesario agradecer a los mortales que trabajan, como lo hizo uno…

Por Lucía Cuberos MONTEVIDEO – Los delitos ambientales son la cuarta actividad delictiva más lucrativa del mundo. La deforestación ilegal, la minería, la pesca y el comercio de especies silvestres entre sus formas más habituales, se han convertido en un enorme motor financiero, que en 2018 se estimaba generaba entre 110 000 y 281 000 millones de dólares en ingresos ilícitos anuales a nivel global, según datos de Interpol. https://ipsnoticias.net/2024/02/america-latina-expande-el-marco-legal-contra-los-delitos-ambientales/ Copyright © 2024 IPS-Inter Press Service.

How can we reverse AI bias for inclusive policies? CHRIS MAHONYMATTHEW MANNINGGABRIEL WONGVARALAKSHMI VEMURUJOSÉ CUESTA|JANUARY 25, 2024 © 2024 The World Bank Group

How can we reverse AI bias for inclusive policies? CHRIS MAHONYMATTHEW MANNINGGABRIEL WONGVARALAKSHMI VEMURUJOSÉ CUESTA|JANUARY 25, 2024 The use of algorithms is increasingly common, from the media content we are presented online to our creditworthiness. However, too often, these algorithms not only replicate, but actually amplify bias, with discriminatory consequences. While commercial incentives have driven an explosion in the private sector’s use of machine learning (ML), governments have been slower to explore how it can mitigate inequality of outcomes between social groups. https://blogs.worldbank.org/developmenttalk/how-can-we-reverse-ai-bias-inclusive-policies © 2024 The World Bank Group

On the frontline of the climate crisis: Atoll nations and coastal communities with catastrophic threats to their homes and livelihoods also face serious legal implications VICTOR MOSOTIVALERIE HICKEY|FEBRUARY 01, 2024 The Republic of the Marshall Islands is one of the world’s atoll nations particularly vulnerable to sea level rise, alongside Kiribati, Tuvalu, and The Maldives. While atoll islands are on the frontline, sea level rise impacts, such as increases in storm severity, decline in coastal ecosystem services and fishery resources, groundwater salinization, and heat waves, are a major threat to the survival of all low-lying coastal areas and cities, including Small Island Developing States (SIDS). https://blogs.worldbank.org/climatechange/frontline-climate-crisis-atoll-nations-and-coastal-communities-catastrophic-threats © 2024 The World Bank Group

Jordan: Empowering climate action in the financial sector IRINA ASKTRAKHANANDRIUS SKARNULIS|FEBRUARY 10, 2024 Climate change effects are on the radar of central banks, financial regulators, and supervisors. Climate-related and environmental risks can affect financial stability, but they also provide new green finance opportunities: the financial sector can become a major driver in mobilizing trillions of the highly needed climate finance. As successful climate action requires a whole-of-economy approach, so too does ‘greening’ the financial sector demand a ‘whole-of-financial sector’ approach. https://blogs.worldbank.org/arabvoices/jordan-empowering-climate-action-financial-sector © 2024 The World Bank Group

Estos precios han experimentado una presión a la baja en medio de una actividad económica mundial débil, una producción récord de Estados Unidos y una producción y exportaciones constantes de Rusia. La debilidad de los precios se hizo visible a pesar de las preocupaciones por la interrupción del suministro tras el conflicto de Oriente Medio, la extensión y profundización de los recortes de producción por parte de la OPEP+, así como el anuncio de compras de petróleo por parte del Gobierno de Estados Unidos para reponer su reserva estratégica de petróleo. Desde el comienzo del último conflicto en Oriente Medio, los precios del Brent han sido volátiles en el contexto de un posible impacto geopolítico en el suministro y las preocupaciones por la desaceleración del crecimiento mundial. Se estima que, en 2023, el consumo mundial de petróleo alcanzará un máximo histórico, respaldado por la resiliencia de la demanda en China. © 2024 Grupo Banco Mundial.
