<p>
En un par de meses más cumpliré 2 años viviendo en Japón, y por
supuesto, estar expuesto al idioma y aprendiendolo mientras hay
energías. Quiero compartir aquí algunas ideas sobre el idioma.
</p>
<div id="outline-container-desafíos" class="outline-2">
<h2 id="desafíos"><span class="section-number-2">1.</span> Desafíos</h2>
<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-desafíos">
<p>
En su momento cuando me dediqué a estudiar inglés para mejorarlo,
pensaba que ser bueno en inglés era casi un don, porque el idioma era
recomplicado para mi, a pesar de haber tenido una base de estudios en el
colegio y en la universidad. Me sentía aavergonzado de mi nivel
considerando que compañeros de u y de colegio entendían el idioma,
hablaban con extranjeros, consumían contenido en el idioma. Mientras que
yo era una bosta de caca sin los subtitulos en español.
</p>

<p>
Ahora que ya cerré ese capitulo y tengo que estudiar japones, no logro
todavía dimensionar que en verdad el inglés era simple y que hay cosas
más hardcores como este idioma jajaja. Lo digo, por supuesto, con
ciertas introspecciones del idioma. Pero en resumen, el idioma no es
necesariamente más dificil, pero tienes que hacer un esfuerzo mayor de
memorizar figuras (kanjis) y asimilar una dinámica del lenguaje que es
distinta a la que vienes acostumbrado.
</p>

<p>
El inglés y el español son idiomas que nos guste o no reconocerlos, son
muy similares ambas tienen influencias de ramas que distintas (germanica
vs romance) pero comparten similitudes como el uso del mismo alfabeto,
un grupo importante de palabras cognadas (que basicamente son palabras
que tienen el mismo significado y que su escritura y pronunciación son
similares, como bank y banco por ejemplo), estructuras gramaticales
relativamente similares, etc.
</p>

<p>
En el japones es bastante diferente, tienes algunos desafíos que
enfrentar como:
</p>

<ol class="org-ol">
<li>pocas palabras cognadas, la gran mayoría pueden venir de palabras
prestadas del inglés</li>
<li>estructuras gramaticales diferentes, que no tienen muchas veces
similitud en como operan con el español y el inglés.</li>
<li>Los niveles de formalidad son más complejos, (mientras que tu te
sientes un caballero ulala señor francés, usando "usted"), en el
japones el idioma puede sonar muy diferente entre un nivel de
formalidad y otro (kenjogo, sonkeigo, etc), incluso cambiando
palabras por algunos especificos de la situación.</li>
<li>Y por supuesto los alfabetos (especialmente los kanjis)</li>
</ol>

<p>
Quiero destacar de que si tu ignoraras el sistema de escritura, el
japones se vuelve más facil, considerando de que junto con el español la
base de la pronunciación es similar, por lo que tendrías una base solida
de como suena el idioma, sin embargo, aprender el idioma requiere en mi
opinión de que manejes el sistema de escritura y al final es ahí la gran
complejidad que yace, esto dado a de que a diferencia del inglés tienes
que realizar un importante trabajo previo antes de empezar a consumir
todo el contenido que quieras.

<div id="outline-container-mi-opinión-sobre-como-aprender-el-idioma" class="outline-2">
<h2 id="mi-opinión-sobre-como-aprender-el-idioma"><span class="section-number-2">2.</span> Mi opinión sobre como aprender el idioma</h2>
<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-mi-opinión-sobre-como-aprender-el-idioma">
<p>
No voy a declararme una voz autorizada sobre como aprender el idioma,
dado de que todavía estoy estudiandolo y por lo tanto todavía no alcanzo
el nivel que deseo (que es algo asi como un intermedio avanzado), pero
si he hecho algunos progresos como entender los animes del genero slice
of life o de escuelas, algunos podcast, también he empezado a entender
señales y propagandas que hay en la ciudad, y ya lentamente leer uno que
otro texto simple, en lo conversacional creo que puedo defenderme con
conversaciones sin ir a algo demasiado específico. Estos son los pasos
que recomiendo, no haré mención al tiempo, dado de que realmente depende
de tu capacidad de absorver la información y el tiempo que le dedicas a
esto:
</p>

<ol class="org-ol">
<li>Aprender hiragana y Katakana, esto es relativamente sencillo, puedes
aprenderlo en un fin de semana, y no te preocupas de si puedes o no
leerlos 100% de memoria, los veras constantemente así que no te
preocupes demasiado por eso masterizarlo de una.</li>
<li>Aprender lo básico de gramática, hay unos libros que son buena base
de explicación de como opera el idioma, que son el Minna no Nihongo 1
y 2, date unas semanas o un par de meses para conocer las bases del
idioma.</li>
<li>Empieza a consumir anime o series de menores de edad, yo diría cosas
que chicos de 2 o 3 años sería sobrio, pero si ya tienes un
background sobre el idioma, entonces ver cosas de 10 años como
Maruko-chan o Non non Biyori pueden ser buen punto.</li>
<li>Aprende entre 300 a 500 kanjis, esta parte es algunas de las cosas
más aburridas puede ser, pero no hay mucho que hacer al respecto,
tienes que aprenderte los kanjis de memoria, lo que yo usé por un
tiempo fue Wanikani (si no quieres gastar plata puedes usar Anki) que
no es nada más que flashcards con un sistema de repetición espaciado,
donde puedes estudiar los respectivos significados y lectura de los
kanjis, esto además de que será el momento de incorporar vocabulario,
que yo recomiendo ir aprendiendo junto con los kanjis, ya que podrás
ir aprendiendolos mediante la cohesión de ciertas palabras y será más
sencillo, por ejemplo, si aprendes que kanji de enorme (巨 o kyo) y
el de persona (人 jin), entonces podrás distinguir una palabra como
(巨人 kyojin) que significa literalmente gigante, tal vez recuerdes
más eso si viste el anime Shingeki no Kyojin (進撃の巨人).</li>
<li>Empieza a leer mangas, hay algunos que son más para adultos, que ni
siquieran usan el furigana (que es la forma en que se leen los kanjis
escrito en hiragana o katakana), a mi parecer todavía es demasiado
temprano para tirarse a esos mangas, por lo que leer otros mangas más
infantiles es mejor para empezar, y por supuesto, evita series de
magia, isekai y otro tipo de cosas, le agregan demasiada complejidad
a las conversaciones para que alguien que esta recien empezando en el
idioma pueda entenderlo.</li>
<li>Sigue iterando hasta alcanzar alrededor de 1000 kanjis masterizados,
hacer flashcards sigue siendo importante y te recomiendo seguir
paralelamente mientras consumes contenido, aunque en la medida que
vayas avanzando irás notando que vas aprendiendo kanjis más raros y
que por lo tanto su frecuencia en los textos es mucho menor, en ese
momento puede que vayas notando de que el tiempo que le dedicas a
aprender esos kanjis va a ser de un retorno menor, por lo que
recomiendo que cuando vayas notandolo empieces a pivotear lentamente
sobre el consumir contenido y vayas estudiando los kanjis en la
medida en que vayan apareciendo.</li>
<li>Avanza estudiando gramática, te recomiendo que vayas de apoco
digiriendo los conceptos, puedes usar bunpro por ejemplo u otros
libros que corresponden al N3 y N2 del nivel de estudios (no
recomendaré ninguno, elige cualquiera), si te aburres, vuelve al
consumo de contenido y trata de ir iterando lentamente sobre la
gramática.</li>
<li>Empieza a leer una novela ligera, cuando ya tengas una buena cantidad
de kanjis bajo el brazo, puedes lanzarte a leer novelas o mini
historias que sean puro texto, esto le dará un poco más de
dificultad, y tendrás que ponerle más atención a lo que sale en el
texto</li>
<li>Lentamente empieza a consumir tanto contenido como sea posible, si
eres otaku, entonces esta es tu salsa, aquí yo creo que no hay drama
en empezar a consumir el idioma y disfrutarlo, así que de aquí puedes
tranquilamente empezar a ser un guatón informático.</li>
<li>A este punto puedes empezar a practicar hablar y escribir.</li>
</ol>

<p>
Te digo altiro que salvo que quieres vivir en Japón, o trabajar para una
empresa del país, o te guste realmente la cultura nipona y quieras
consumirla desde la fuente primaria (sin traducciones), entonces la
respuesta es no xd. El japonés es un lenguaje que podría tal vez
ayudarte economicamente pero el tiempo que tienes que dedicarle es
importante por lo que puede que no valga la pena el esfuerzo (para eso
mejor aprende inglés, chino o aleman). Sin embargo, hay algo interesante
de la cultura japonesa que merece ser soslayado, y que tiene que ver con
la inmensa cantidad de creación de contenido (del bueno eso si) que
probablemente solo encontrarás en japones, es decir, el país tiene toda
una rica historia sobre temas de filosofía, cultura, ciencias sociales,
medicina e ingeniería que solo encontrarás en el idioma y tal vez
solamente lo más destacado comercialmente tendrá una traducción al
inglés y quizás al español, si te interesa esto, bueno creo que vale la
pena el esfuerzo.

<h2 id="introduction"><span class="section-number-2">1.</span> Introduction</h2>
<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-introduction">
<p>
The purpose of starting this blog is to create a space where I can write
about topics that interest me related to technology, the world of
quantitative methods for decision making, programming, among others.
</p>

<p>
But why create a blog, if there are so many spaces out there that are
more convenient than building one? The truth is, I wanted to have a more
independent space and not too comfortable on third parties (nor benefit
them), although there are spaces like Twitter (which seems to be in
greater decline every day) or Medium, I simply thought that the best
thing I could do is to have a personal space, and given that the dream
of owning a house seems to be increasingly distant for my generation,
well at least I can settle for having a blog, right?
</p>
</div>
</div>
<div id="outline-container-inspirations" class="outline-2">
<h2 id="inspirations"><span class="section-number-2">2.</span> Inspirations</h2>
<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-inspirations">
<p>
The truth is, I've had some inspirations from different blogs out there,
and they do very interesting work and opened my desire to have my own
space, so I'll mention them here and I hope that you can research on
your own and take the time to read their proposals
</p>

<h2 id="what-to-expect-from-this-blog"><span class="section-number-2">3.</span> What to expect from this blog?</h2>
<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-what-to-expect-from-this-blog">
<p>
Honestly, I don't have a clear direction yet and at least in the short
term, I don't expect to make money with this, for this reason, I'm not
going to track visits to this blog.
</p>

<p>
But some of the topics I will or wish to publish are related to:
</p>

<ul class="org-ul">
<li>Theoretical and applied concepts on statistics, optimization or
Machine Learning especially to the world of decision making, as well
as related to computer science or software engineering in general.</li>
<li>On the use of Julia and Python to face specific problems of the topics
mentioned above. I may be adding other languages that interest me,
like R, C/C++ or Rust.</li>
<li>Analysis of certain data that interest me</li>
<li>Open source and technology</li>
<li>Opinion and general reflections on social and life issues</li>
</ul>

<p>
I don't pretend to be an expert voice on any of these topics, but I do
hope to learn a lot within this activity of reflecting and writing about
these topics.

<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-how-can-you-support-me">
<p>
I don't expect much from this blog other than for my own satisfaction.
But in case you want to connect and/or talk about these topics, you can
use Mastodon channels or simply my email for that purpose (I'm not a big
fan of traditional social networks, to be honest)
</p>

<p>
In the end, I hope we can have fun and let's connect if we are
interested in similar topics

<title>Status update november 2025</title>

<description>
<![CDATA[<p>
Well, this is my first status update in the blog, before I was writing
some things based on a specific topic, as today I have many things
happening but I don't have the interest to go so much into details to
explain what I am doing or thinking. So at least I want to give a time
to describe briefly these things.
</p>
<div id="outline-container-dreaming-in-lisp" class="outline-2">
<h2 id="dreaming-in-lisp"><span class="section-number-2">1.</span> Dreaming in Lisp</h2>
<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-dreaming-in-lisp">
<p>
In the past few months I have been exposed to the Lisp family language,
first with Emacs Lisp (Elisp) and my curiosity for the language has
increased, while Elisp only can be used inside Emacs, I was checking a
more general programming language, from a long review it seems that
<a href="https://clojure.org/">Clojure</a> and
<a href="https://lisp-lang.org/">Common-Lisp</a> are the most popular programming
languages for that purpose.
</p>

<p>
I am now getting some expositions with CL through
<a href="https://exercism.org/">Exercism</a>, and I would like to participate in
the <a href="https://adventofcode.com/">Advent of Code 2025</a> if I have some
time these days. But overall I like the experience, certainly coming
from Julia, it has been a pleasant experience to use Emacs and Slime
with SBCL, while I like Julia, I feel like dealing with compilation time
and the lack of mature tooling outside of VSCode get me exhausted
sometimes.
</p>

<p>
Also I gave a time to use <a href="https://stumpwm.github.io/">StumpWM</a>, a
window manager written in Common Lisp, it feels snappy, and the way that
you can connect Emacs to the REPL and start making changes on the fly is
a much more productive workflow than the suckless experience of
compiling and restarting your software. Also the way that you can create
and rename Groups and search by name has been a saner experience than
workspaces based on numbers in my opinion.
</p>
</div>
</div>
<div id="outline-container-change-to-graphene-os" class="outline-2">
<h2 id="change-to-graphene-os"><span class="section-number-2">2.</span> Change to Graphene-OS</h2>
<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-change-to-graphene-os">
<p>
Few weeks ago I started using a Pixel 8 with
<a href="https://grapheneos.org/">Graphene OS</a>, certainly in this experience I
was hesitant to move to acquire a phone that can be impossible to unlock
due to carrier restrictions, and you could ended up with a Google Phone.
So I approach this with serious caution.
</p>

<p>
Fortunately, everything ended up well, and I could flash the new OS in
the phone, install a sandboxed Google Play Store and install some apps
that I need for daily basis, and the rest fill with only FOSS.
</p>

<p>
Overall the experience has been better than I expected, I created
multiple users and when I need to move to the Google services I just
move between users, It has been a peace of mind comparing with using a
Huawei phone, considering that you have 2 bigh tech sneaky around your
data.
</p>
</div>
</div>
<div id="outline-container-self-hosting-my-xmpp-server" class="outline-2">
<h2 id="self-hosting-my-xmpp-server"><span class="section-number-2">3.</span> Self Hosting my XMPP server</h2>
<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-self-hosting-my-xmpp-server">
<p>
For a while I was considering to self-host a chat server for family and
friends, and you have mainly 2 options XMPP or Matrix, I try to see the
installation process of both using the most common protocol
implementations (Prosody and Synapse respectively), and I really want to
like Matrix, but I just feel Prosody was far more straightforward and
easier to install, It was in the Debian Repository so you could just
type sudo apt install prosody in the terminal, while I think also Matrix
works out of the box and for some reasons I see most people and FOSS
projects are using it.
</p>

<p>
Anyway, the big challenge is to bring people to use this thing, and that
is the hardest part, people are so attached to use Whatsapp and other
apps, that is hard to convince them to move to something that they will
use it only for talking to one contact or one group probably. So still
there is work to do.
</p>

<ol class="org-ol">
<li>Enable several features, so people will be less reluctant to change
if they compare with the apps they were using (video calls, image
upload, chat groups, etc)</li>
<li>Wait for an event that compromise these apps in terms of security and
privacy. So if your people want to move to another app, the XMPP
server will be ready to receive new users.</li>
</ol>

<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-thinking-to-start-exploring-gentoo">
<p>
Last weeks I was seriously considering to try a new Linux Distro, I have
been using Debian for quite a while, as a server and desktop, but I am
considering to use something different for the later, one of the main
reasons is to find a Distro that is not using systemd as an init system,
there are
<a href="https://unixdigest.com/articles/the-real-motivation-behind-systemd.html">political
and technical reasons</a> to avoid it. For other side, while there are
some distros that are branches from the main ones which give you
alternative init systems like Devuan and Artix, I don't like to use
distros that are based on hacks of the original distribution. So that's
why I am thinking to try Gentoo as my possible next distro.
</p>

<h2 id="expanding-skills-on-programming"><span class="section-number-2">5.</span> Expanding skills on Programming</h2>
<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-expanding-skills-on-programming">
<p>
Finally, I have been a data analyst for a while, my main jobs always has
been related with deal with data, I am ok with that, but I am not really
into data in my free time. I believe that is good to spend my time in
skills that not depends on what the market want from you. The talents
should belong to you and only you, data science and all these things are
mainly skills that are good for your employee, and I think is important
to departure sometimes from that. Learning Linux or Emacs has made me
more free than learning something like Power BI or Excel.
</p>

<p>
That's why I was considering to learn more about programming not only
for the niche I was used to do professionally but also for building
things, that help me in my own business.

<title>Plans for this year</title>

<![CDATA[<p>
I am not really into writing commitments or resolutions for the new
year. Because most of the time I ended up changing it in the middle, but
I have seen some blog post from the small web sharing their own stuffs,
and I thought It could be nice to try once again, so here is my
(desired) plan
</p>
<div id="outline-container-1-dot-studying-some-programming-languages-dot" class="outline-3">
<h3 id="1-dot-studying-some-programming-languages-dot"><span class="section-number-3">0.1.</span> 1. Studying some programming languages.</h3>
<div class="outline-text-3" id="text-1-dot-studying-some-programming-languages-dot">
<p>
As I wrote previously I have some interest in specific programming
languages I don't believe so much in this idea to learn one that could
solve all your problems but just choose the best tool for the job (while
I understand the idea of having just one or two tools that you need to
know to solve most of your problems is a beautiful idea). But nowadays,
still use Julia for all the crunching number problems, and I want to
develop a higher proficiency with Elisp to master emacs, C for low level
programming and maybe Go for any other general programming stuff (I
admit that Common Lisp is also an interesting option for the last
purpose).
</p>
</div>
</div>
<div id="outline-container-2-dot-develop-a-free-software-project" class="outline-3">
<h3 id="2-dot-develop-a-free-software-project"><span class="section-number-3">0.2.</span> 2. Develop a Free Software Project</h3>
<div class="outline-text-3" id="text-2-dot-develop-a-free-software-project">
<p>
Self-explanatory, but I have interest to develop some software for my
own problems, that often I face when I do some scientific computing,
because of that I want to try to build solutions for my own, Probably I
will use Julia that is the language I have been using the most these
days. Let's see if this can produce good fruits.
</p>
</div>
</div>
<div id="outline-container-3-dot-reading-intentions" class="outline-3">
<h3 id="3-dot-reading-intentions"><span class="section-number-3">0.3.</span> 3. Reading intentions</h3>
<div class="outline-text-3" id="text-3-dot-reading-intentions">
<p>
I have several books in my library, from "Thinking, Fast and Slow" to
The Bible If is possible to read at least 10 books and 2 written in
japanese It would be a nice goal, certainly I could try to read more
things but want to have space for other stuffs. And also want to try to
write reviews of the books I am reading in the blog, for anyone
interested and also for me as a mean to force me to think more deeply
about the things I am reading, there are several books out there in Epub
and PDF, and with Emacs is easy to take notes and save it for a future
use.

<div class="outline-text-3" id="text-4-dot-publishing-tutorials-about-linux-for-the-hispanic-community">
<p>
This is something I have been thinking for a while, I am in a Signal
group where we try to help each other with things related to FOSS,
privacy and other related stuffs, people come from different backgrounds
and level of understanding about FOSS It is not a surprise that people
in the hispanic world have a harder time trying to immerse themselves in
the world of technoly when most of the content out there is in english.
Well crafted tutorials for specific problems could improve the
experience of newcomers.
</p>

<p>
These tutorials could range from installing linux, basics of the command
line, git, having your own website, text editing with vim, emacs, among
other utilities. The tutorials could be written in my website and record
it so people could watch on Youtube or Peertube.

<div class="outline-text-3" id="text-5-dot-continue-mastering-emacs-dot">
<p>
Time to time I was considering to go back to Vim, when I got tired of
editing in Emacs, hoping that now vim and the unix philosophy will open
a new door for enjoyment, but this rapidly fall and just decide to go
back to Emacs, another case of "the grass is greener on the other side"
I guess.
</p>

<p>
I have been using Emacs for a year, started suffering with the
keybindings, learning about org mode, and coding some elisp. Today I use
Emacs for almost 80% of my computing experience: emails, news, blogging,
coding, reading, etc. But still I am fairly an user that just relay too
much in foreign packages when I see there are some nice built-in
solutions and I would like to become more proficient with this tools and
my capacity to write elisp code.
