En algún momento reciente alguien decidió el nuevo diseño oficial de las farmacias de España. Mismos focos, mismos leds, mismo aire en todas.

Y así es como en 2 minutos mi @openclaw me ha programado una skill para sacar todos mis tickets digitales de @Mercadona de mi mail, crear una base de datos analizarla! 2 minutos y un solo prompt! Todos los días desde hace meses programo con AI pero no deja de alucinarme!

This is the first time I’ve seen ChatGPT render a custom interactive mini tool UI, in this case a calculator, to answer one of my questions. I think a big part of the future of software lies in this blend of conversations with agents and custom interactive UIs.

"Some people in the West might see A.I. as a job killer or the cyborg assassin in The Terminator. But in Japan, people are more likely to associate the technology with Doraemon, the cuddly robotic cat" Everything at the end, is narrative economics. archive.ph/hSByc

In 20 years, vibe coders will look at the Linux kernel repo the way we look at the pyramids. In awe, unable to imagine how they managed to drag all those giant stones and pile them up in the middle of the desert.

I exported all the data that Google Maps and uploaded it to @graphext.bsky.social to answer a question I constantly ask myself: How much time have I spent in Madrid compared to Granada over the past seven years? It turns out I've spent roughly 30% of my time in Granada and 70% in Madrid.

Very interesting! Madrid now receives almost x3 as many national tourists as Barcelona, even though Barcelona gets over a million more international tourists each year than Madrid Also curious Zaragoza gets x3 more national tourism than international. Data INE + analysis with @graphext.bsky.social

Another great piece by Civio explaining how Spain’s prison permit algorithm works—and its biases. It hasn’t been updated since 1993!

I find it pretty amazing that almost every home in Madrid has a metro station within 300 meters on average, and only 25% are more than 500 meters away. Across the entire city! Data from Idealista on @graphext.bsky.social

If you’ve never heard of How To with John Wilson, do yourself a favor and put it on tonight or this weekend on HBO Max. One of the most underrated shows in history. They’re like mini-documentaries about everyday life in New York.

I love nonfiction books that are under 100 pages. I’ve downloaded over 2M books and reviews from Goodreads. What I’ve found is that less than 5% of nonfiction books published are under 100 pages. As you can see in this chart I created with @graphext.bsky.social , they tend to be much more popular!

I have salespeople chasing me all day trying to sell me B2B software through LinkedIn, cold calls while I spend my day chasing plumbers to get things fixed at home. Capitalism is sending a signal, AI writes code so well but robot hands still can’t quite manage to properly connect two pipes!

November is the month when temperatures in Madrid change the most drastically. They dropped by 33% compared to October. The data comes from 100 years of temperature readings taken from the AEMET thermometer in El Retiro park, accessed via their API and visualized on @graphext.bsky.social

The thing about agents in the new version of Cursor is crazy. It created a medium-complex functional DBT model using BigQuery data from GA4 in just 3 minutes with a single prompt. It generated all the files, the code, installed packages, and even recovered from errors all on its own…

So many people have tried this before and failed… What Bluesky is achieving is amazing and critical for the future of social media. Truly becoming an open protocol for social networks, like the internet or email itself and easy to use, is no easy task!

Just as starting axes above zero is often considered bad practice, it can also be a good idea to leave the empty space up to 100%, as in this example, to emphasize how far all the categorical values are from achieving something.

I’ve read a lot recently about how Kamala Harris strongly supports data-driven policies, and has really pushed for creating new databases to better understand crime. I hope this is true and more politicians focus less on being tough or soft on issues and more on being smart about them…

I’ve created a small Python script to extract the social graph of followers and followings for any public Bluesky account. You can upload the output CSV to a free @graphext.bsky.social account and create an interactive project like this one of my followings public.graphext.com/c8f47a5e19c3...

If you use a Mac, try flowvoice.ai . It transcribes speech almost instantly and perfectly in both English and Spanish, correctly writes any person’s or company’s name, automatically adds perfect punctuation, and even corrects some errors 🤯 It’s free and runs locally on your computer

I am creating a scraper that extracts tweets from all Spanish media outlets and dumps them into @graphext.bsky.social every day for analysis. Lunchtime in Spain is at 2 pm, and the peak of news activity is at 12 pm and 4 pm. Also, people write many more replies after 10 p.m. when they finish dinner.

For some reason when you are young, you highly undervalue feeling that what you do in your job matters versus the salary you earn. But as I get older, I keep meeting people who would give up a lot of money to be in a position where they feel truly useful.
