Still, it's undeniable that it stands out most in the public sphere, since very few politicians resist the temptation to use their influence. In my country, Paraguay, this practice became so widespread that the term…ladyaryastark in Blurtlatam • 6 days ago • 1 min readPolymemo: Probando una red social nuevaHoy me topé con esta red social monetizable, de origen japonés y con un concepto de puntos que puedes comprar y también supuestamente ganar, para luego canjearlos por dinero a través de Paypal. Aparentemente el sitio es japonés, dirigido a una audiencia global, la verdad me causa un poco de desconfianza, pero le daré una oportunidad. La…ladyaryastark memberin Curators Community • 7 days ago • 14 min readAli Baba and the 11 WitnessesIn a "Decentralized" governance system by delegation, in which the top 20 witnesses are supposedly the ones who look after the Project's interests, they are the ones who set the course that can lead the best project to success or failure. Hive is the best example of how the real world and its corrupt practices get applied in a project that…ladyaryastark memberin Curators Community • 10 days ago • 8 min readAvengers: JiveCatchersUna propuesta presentada ayer me conmovió hasta las lágrimas. Y es que los JiveCatchers son un par de chicos con más experiencia que un agente de seguridad nacional de EEUU, que luchan contra los abusos, el spam, y los peligros a los que están expuestos los usuarios de Jive. Según sus propias palabras trabajan 20 horas al día, 7 días a la…ladyaryastark memberin Curators Community • 11 days ago • 4 min readTerremotosQuisiera antes que nada extender mis condolencias a los hermanos venezolanos que han sufrido otro nuevo golpe hace unas semanas. Parafraseando a mi compatriota Augusto Roa Bastos, pareciera que el infortunio se enamoró de Venezuela, al igual que de mi país. ¿Está tu país preparado para soportar terremotos de gran magnitud? Mi país no está…ladyaryastark memberin Curators Community • 12 days ago • 4 min readMistakes and knowledgeHave you ever spent money on a hobby thinking: "Yes, this is going to change my life!" ...only to realize later that it was a hilarious mistake? Honestly, at the time I did not find the mistake very funny at all — quite embarrassing, actually — but I can say it taught me a lesson for life. I was in the capital because I had to sit one of…ladyaryastark memberin We Are Alive Tribe • 13 days ago • 6 min readBread and MemesHumor has always been a tool for expression and, if you will, for resistance. In many circumstances, it is the only way to voice opinions without facing censorship or criticism. Fortunately, there are many ways in which humor can be conveyed, and today memes and GIFs are the undisputed kings. Without categorizing any particular form of humor…ladyaryastark memberin We Are Alive Tribe • 14 days ago • 6 min readImperfect FutureIf we look to archaeological data, one could argue there is sufficient evidence suggesting that the profession for which I trained at university will continue to exist in the future, as long as commerce continues to exist as we know it. Accounting is almost as old as commerce itself. As far back as the times of the Sumerians, Babylonians, and…ladyaryastark memberin We Are Alive Tribe • 16 days ago • 6 min readBetween the Oath and the InvoiceMedicine is not exempt from mercantile individuals who see its practice as a business, and quite a lucrative one at that. In some countries, healthcare services are purely private, managed by companies or foundations, with varying degrees of profit-driven motivation. In others, the public health system is state-funded, with better or worse…ladyaryastark memberin We Are Alive Tribe • 17 days ago • 2 min readFeliz Aniversario Blurt 🎂 🎉🥳 Power Up ExtraHoy es Sábado 4 de Julio, aniversario de Blurt Blockchain, y es motivo para hacer un Power Up extra para celebrar la ocasión. Quería que la cantidad de hoy fuera significativa, y con un poco de ayuda familiar alcancé la cifra de mil Blurts. En principio solo tenía poco más de 900 Blurts líquidos, y me resigné, pero luego me di cuenta de que…ladyaryastark memberin We Are Alive Tribe • 17 days ago • 1 min readDaily Prompt | Garbage SandwichThe nickname "Garbage Sandwich" started as an innocent joke referring to the profession he practiced and how he practiced it. But after getting to know him a little better, I realized it defined his way of thinking: pure mixed garbage disguised as humor. El apodo de "Sandwich de Basura" empezó como una broma inocente en referencia a…ladyaryastark memberin We Are Alive Tribe • 18 days ago • 8 min readThe Luxury of DisciplineI believe many will agree with me that it would be useless to try to discipline a child, regardless of the disciplinary punishment style used, if they have not been properly educated beforehand. I also consider that some people will grant me as at least partially true that new generations lack basic education for life in society. I am not…ladyaryastark memberin We Are Alive Tribe • 19 days ago • 3 min readTema de esta Semana: MiedosAunque no tengo una base de conocimiento filosófico y antropológico, tengo ciertas ideas (propias implantadas) al respecto, las cuales compartiré sin ánimo de imponer mi opinión. ¿Crees que nuestros miedos nos limitan en nuestra vida diaria? Sí y no. La respuesta es dependerá del contexto personal.

In my case, my parents never gave me an allowance, not because they lacked the resources, but because it was not part of the culture of my country. Even so, all our needs were covered…ladyaryastark memberin We Are Alive Tribe • 21 days ago • 7 min readWe Don't Live on a Deserted IslandPeople are often so stubborn and selfish that they disregard others' rights, believing they are entitled to satisfy only their own desires and whims. Surely most of us have had an inconsiderate neighbor who forces us to listen to what they call "music," blasting it at full volume because they believe it is their right to do so. While laws…ladyaryastark memberin Curators Community • 22 days ago • 12 min readHow does Hive Governance works?I think there will be a lot of theory about how Hive works as an "entity" that needs human beings to function. The reality is that, apparently, there is no "Community Hive," even though it supposedly was born as a reaction to the purchase of Steem by an individual, to supposedly be a place where the community rules. I am new and know little…ladyaryastark memberin We Are Alive Tribe • 23 days ago • 6 min readApprentice or Cheap Labor?All of us, or at least the vast majority, have been interns at some point in our lives. In my case, as a requirement to graduate from secondary school — which we call "bachillerato" — it was necessary to complete an internship of a certain number of class hours, which was usually one month full-time or two months part-time.

[ES/PT]Mi visión sobre ciertas tradiciones es simple, creo que ciertas tradiciones son sencillamente una normalización de la maldad. ¿Crees que existen tradiciones que sean dañinas, malignas o toxicas?
