On Zizek's Pandemic!
New Slavoj Zizek book Pandemic! seems prophetic for the new reality that could emerge after the COVID-19 catastrophy ends.
https://www.orbooks.com/catalog/pandemic/
Just one representative fragment:
Hegel wrote that the only thing we can learn from history is that we learn nothing from history, so I doubt the epidemic will make us any wiser. The only thing that is clear is that the virus will shatter the very foundations of our lives, causing not only an immense amount of suffering but also economic havoc conceivably worse than the Great Recession. There is no return to normal, the new “normal” will have to be constructed on the ruins of our old lives, or we will find ourselves in a new barbarism whose signs are already clearly discernible. It will not be enough to treat the epidemic as an unfortunate accident, to get rid of its consequences and return to the smooth functioning of the old way of doing things, with perhaps some adjustments to our healthcare arrangements. We will have to raise the key question: What is wrong with our system that we were caught unprepared by the catastrophe despite scientists warning us about it for years? (Zizek, 2020: 3-4)

Tres categorías de académicos en México
De acuerdo con los datos publicados el año pasado en La Jornada
(https://www.jornada.com.mx/2018/07/29/politica/012n1pol) en la Academia mexicana existen tres estratos o clases: el inframundo (profesores de asignatura con sueldos muy bajos, 80% de todos), la clase media (unos 15%, con ingresos promedios mensuales cercanos a 1500 USD, profesores e investigadires de tiempo completo en las universidades) y la primera clase con salarios mensuales por encima de 2500 USD (menos que 5% de todos, incluyendo los academicos emeritos, lideres de grupos, etc.).
Esto se combina con las becas de SNI, estratificafas de forma similar, desde mas baja para el candidato al investigador nacional (250-300 USD mensuales) hasta mas alta para investigador de nivel 3 o emerito (algo como 1500 USD). Son unos 33 mil academicos que reciben estas becas en 2019.
Y ahora, buena noticia: ¡ayer salieron las listas de los investigadores SNI para el año 2019!

Extraordinary interview of R. McNamee on core social networking issues
So that’s when I decided I’d better figure out exactly what happened. I met Tristan Harris, a design ethicist from Google, who talked about what he called “brain hacking”, a term that he invented to describe the persuasive technologies used by internet platforms that enable them to develop habits in the minds of the people who use the products. Those habits evolve into addictions, and that situation makes [users] vulnerable to manipulation.
They were very much in the business of manipulating attention in order to get you to spend more time on [their services]. And that is a very dangerous business model for society. It’s bad for the mental health of the people who use it. It’s terrible for democracy. It’s completely destroyed any sense of privacy, and it’s undermined entrepreneurship in the United States [...]Read the full article Читать дальше......
