russia invades Ukraine

    I am writing this blog because of the past week of events, when russia began to invade Ukraine. I've never been to Ukraine, and by the looks of it now, I will never get see it in the way it was russia destroyed it. I find it so difficult to believe that human beings still wage wars with one another causing irreversible death and destruction upon one another. Vladmir Putin is a ruthless imperialist DICKtator and I hope his actions lead to his demise. I hope that Ukraine can survive the russian invasion and protect their democratic liberties. I am also worried about Taiwan, which will likely be invaded by China soon, spurring further chaos and disorder across the world. I really hope these escalations don't lead to another world war, but only time will tell. What is certain is that we are living in a breaking point of history and the world may become more dangerous than ever.

    The only upside to this conflict, up to the time of writing this blog, is how the world has responded so far. Many people have protested across the world and many powerful nations are giving military weapons and technology to Ukraine so that they can defend themselves. I've also seen unity among party lines as to how the US should respond, potentially bringing people together politically for the first time since September 11, 2001. Hopefully russia remains isolated in their attempt to obtain their geopolitical objective and fail to do so, while strengthening the collaboration between democratic countries. Hopefully the least amount of people will die so that humanity and that we can live in better harmony.

PS: I purposely wrote russia with lowercase letter because I think Putin is a heartless man and until they can oust him, russia will continue to be a threat to peace and stability around the world.

The Evil of Man

It turns out that we are all born with morality and it is a core innate attribute we all have. Studies show that infants as young as 3 months have the ability to make moral decisions, which may come at great surprise as traditional theories have always argued that morality is learned as opposed to innate. There are two main outcomes I think are most interesting, when it comes to this topic, and will discuss their vast ramifications. The first outcome shows that infants generally rather see people being helped than not being helped. The second outcome narrows down the scope to who do infants rather be helped or not helped, and it turns out that infants prefer those they cant relate to don't get helped. It is hard for me to explain these studies as I am not a psychologist, but the implications are that humans naturally, without considering nurture (good parenting), prefer that those who they can't relate to get less assistance. These findings explain how the human is evil towards...

Traveling expands your perspective

 Living abroad has really improved my perspective in life, mostly because the limits of culture are plain to see. Culture shock was not new to me, even before traveling abroad, because I had experienced culture shock as a teenager within the US. I spent most of my childhood living in a very diverse part of the US, where most of the people in my neighborhood were people of color. Then I moved from a neighborhood full of people of color into a neighborhood full of white people, which was a huge culture shock for me. I remember trying to make friends with my white neighbors, and most of them ended up bullying me (presumable due to being the only non-white person present). Luckily my high school was somewhat diverse, so I found nicer white people and other people of color to befriend later on.      Getting back to the point, my time traveling has really allowed me to see the limits of my own form of being and how dependent that is to the culture one belongs to. We are al...

ChatGPT is Here!

Open AI's ChatGPT has blown me away since I first used it back in December 2022. I was using it to plan a trip to Africa and Europe and it handled itself incredibly well, giving me a lot of valuable information. Then I used it to see if it could handle one of the assignments, I had given my class and again, it was able to generate a well written and articulated response to my Open AI's ChatGPT has blown me away since I first used it back in December 2022.

Today, as I was working on a document I needed to finish for work, and I really didn't even know where to start. I was just about to go ask one of my colleagues about how to do it and then a thought hit my mind, why no...
