«[El proyecto] presenta a la Patagonia como un territorio despoblado y, como sucede en otras zonas de datacenters, los considera “vacíos”, negando sus pueblos, sus culturas y su ambiente.»

🧊 OpenAI ¿llega a la Patagonia?

Lo que se presenta como una “inversión tecnológica histórica” puede transformarse en una zona de sacrificio digital.

La fecha del anuncio no es casual: 12 de octubre.

En newsletter LadoBNews de hoy propongo otras lecturas.

Hard to cover everything in one article, but you'd think a piece premised on how the bailout will succeed only with a Milei victory in the midterms would at least note the, uh, recent internal developments that make that surpassingly unlikely (Espert, polling, veto overrides, general immiseration).

For Bessent’s $20 billion bet on Argentina to pay off, a lot of things have to go right.

The problem is that in Argentina -- a nation with a track record of squandering other people’s money and defaulting on its own debts -- those things have tended to go wrong.

"... the history of the term Staatsräson is explicitly a history of violence. It’s about all of these forms of behavior that are not moral but are politically necessary: lying, deceit, violence, expropriation…”

I worry that in schools they’re getting too much “active reading” training too early. Actively pulling information from a passage is a very useful skill, but is certainly not how you should engage with Gandalf inviting dwarves to your peaceful home for a raucous party.

Lo lindo del asunto es que Espert cree que «recibí la plata de una mina de oro en Guatemala» no resulta igualmente turbio.
