Suena a que Trump quiere castigar a Colombia para "dar ejemplo" al resto del mundo. El poder político de los colombianos en USA es mínimo.

Muy, muy grave. Esto va a hacer un daño a los colombianos que se sentirá por décadas. Y del lado Trump y USA, no habrá consecuencia negativa mayor.

Esto es gravisimo y Colombia tiene virtualmente cero opciones de negociar. Una ausencia total de razón y liderazgo.

Si Trump lleva esto al máximo, hará un daño económico inmenso al país.

I put off this task for over a month and finished it in 7 minutes.
sigh... happy 2025, y'all.

I managed to reduce my stress levels in 2024 vs 2023—one of the hardest goals I set.

I meditated more, exercised consistently, and slept better.

This was despite lots of travel, heavier workload and painful decisions.

25% of a century gone.

one can hope

Neuralink is SO far away still.

Statistics, programming, good writing, public speaking, Linux, Excel, AI, English.

To me, these are the basic skills needed to succeed in life, make a lot of money, and ensure no technological disruption ever threatens your career.

Am I missing any?

Last night, I wrote a scraper (with o1) to analyze stats and insights from Platzi’s YT channel.
1. Without experience coding, with APIs, and data science, it'd be hard to get good results.
2. Impossible to imagine programming without AI moving forward

🤔 Hispanics born in Latin America make 10% of foreign-born workers in strategic industries in the US. 3rd place, after India and China. Significantly ahead of everybody else.

This isn't true. Europe leads in industrial high precision, commercial aviation, pharma and chemicals. And they almost lead in lasers and automotive innovation (except evs, only god nows why)

So many non-developers telling aspiring developers that learning to code isn't needed anymore will make the few who decide to learn programming very successful.

The founders of the Freestyle Master Series were the first Platzi students to win our Demo Day with their startup: Urban Roosters.

They've grown so much 🥲

All humans need to be useful.

In English things "make sense".
But sense is a quality that things have.
So, in Spanish things "tienen sentido".

Then some countries, like Mexico, decided English was right.
Over there, things "hacen sentido".

And it drives me crazy.

It's not aliens.
It's never aliens.

The assassination of UHC's CEO isn't what you think

If they clap when the plane lands, it means the immigration line is going to be LONG.

Nothing grows your self-love like working on yourself

Invest so much in *you* that there's no room for your inner voice to doubt your worth.

Few people invest enough in themselves, yet we all can. It’s just effort and time.

Which jobs are most at risk in 2025 due to AI automation?
Here’s what Platzi students said during today's LIVE 👇

Freddy Vega, CEO de Platzi: “Cuando se diga que la IA superó a la capacidad humana, hay que preguntarse ‘¿Y qué?’” WIRED en Español conversa con Freddy Vega, fundador y CEO de Platzi, la plataforma de educación tecnológica más grande de América Latina, acerca de la IA, la educación y el mercado laboral, temas que ...

I was interviewed by WIRED, we talked about:
Who won't suffer unemployment due to AI
The incorrect way to learn more
Regulation against digital addictions, the way we did nicotine
And my biggest worry

This is how Chinese cars beat the rest of the world, especially EVs:

Batteries are the most expensive part. They control that production chain globally, making it impossible for anyone to compete with them profitably.

Latin America knows very well the cost of putting loyal people in charge of the most important govt institutions, instead of qualified experts.

"Immigrating is not just about changing homes, it's about changing the person you are," someone told me last night.
And yes.
