WarGames



How far technology can go? It is an often question everyone ask, including such philosophical questions about we humans and our creations, just like our Frankenstein Monster, our creation could bring chaos to ourselves. We have the power to create and the limit of our creation could be bypass by that same creation. This movie called War Games, bring this topic and it is an actual matter, and now even more because now a days technology had reached tremendous power and capacity that is very impressive, some tasks that we humans cannot do, or maybe as fast, are done by our own creation. Just like the arguments of the Android David in the movies Prometheus and Alien Covenant, David reached a conscious level that defined him to be as he was and committing every action during the movie. It is that self evolution that keeps growing and it hasn’t the same limits as human interpretation has. Another example is this classic movie 2001 A Space Odyssey, from S. Kubrik, HAL 9
000, who has evolved into an “evil” machine, but the reasons where justified by its program, because its goal was to completing the mission, and for HAL it was known that the mission could not succeed because of the same humans. And finally to add to this description of AI, Blade Runner, but for this matter it preferred to talk about the book’s title, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?… do they?
We should respect our creations and our entire environment, and always in this topics comes to mind if we should accept AI as a living being or not, some of this same arguments are well described in the Matrix trilogy, it only depends on everything we learn or could learn by understanding what are we evolving and who are we becoming.

Hidden Figures

Movies can become into an interesting resource to present certain stories and events that haven’t been known or not well known In the case of the movie, Hidden Figures , 3 main characters are being presented, which had an important role in history during the first steps of the Space Program in the United States, calculations had to be performed in order to get the right scenario for the rockets to l and.

Microservices

Adaptability is always the answer, depending on the environment is how everything else is going to adapt. In the case of micro services, it is known by a new model for the big monolith replacement, but it is not a replacement, is just another type of architecture that had its benefits because certain features it has, but ensuring that micro services is the only path to follow, causes a problem, this architecture is proper for specific scenarios. In the industry, the massive over use of a new technology is often, for newer creations comes the extended massive usage. At this point other creations or technology can be developed to enter the competition scenario, for now, the old monolithic model is left behind, while micro services models are more used and potential growth is heading that way. As mention before, for some scenarios is viable using micro services, but in not the only alternative, it always depend on what is being worked on. It is true that segmentation and modulation can d...
