The Red Boy and His Infinite Cube

Night after night, the same events, glimpses and snippets of the ineffable, repeat; gradually clinging into my conscious mind. A username and a password come to mind. Something starting with C-H and then two surnames. The first one of those starts with a Z; that much I’m sure of. The second one begins with an E, I think. Two twin accounts can, or rather could, be accessed with those credentials. I feel like I’ve logged in a thousand times, but I can only remember a few of those. I’m never sure which is which, but using the first name and the surnames in the correct fields grants access. Do it backwards and end up backwards, I guess. When I type the credentials in the wrong places I wake up facing the wrong side. It’s so unnerving, and yet completely necessary. I always sleep on my left side; I’ve heard it’s good for your GI tract or something like that, and I just feel more comfortable that way. I’ve been sleeping that way for decades, which is why I’m so annoyed every night I wake up ...

The Current, the Ideal, the Possible: Reforming Bolivian Education for the 2025–2030 Period and Beyond

  The Current, the Ideal, the Possible: Reforming Bolivian Education for the 2025–2030 Period and Beyond by Pablo P. V. This document outlines a visionary reform plan to modernize Bolivia’s K–12 education system. It begins by diagnosing current challenges, including politicization of education, absence of international benchmarking (PISA), and outdated infrastructure, teaching methods, and curriculum. Next, it analyzes socio-cultural and historical factors, noting that aside from the 1955 post-Revolution educational code, there has been no truly comprehensive reform (Jimenez Quispe, 2011). It also examines contemporary challenges, like shortened attention spans from short-format social media overconsumption and the rise of AI-assisted essay writing, and identifies the panorama these factors create. The final section proposes concrete solutions: a fully gamified, technology-integrated learning environment; media-rich curricula; differentiated academic paths aiming for associate-degr...
