Menú para despolarizar

2 weeks ago | elcomercio.pe | Carlos Melendez

Hace seis meses, Joseph –huachano de nacimiento– abrió Sinchi, un restaurante peruano en Rua Luis de Camões, en el barrio de Alcántara, en Lisboa. (Muy recomendable su arroz con mariscos). No se trata de esas cocinas nacionales en el extranjero dedicadas a un público cautivo de paladares nostálgicos. En todo Portugal, los connacionales no deben pasar los 2.000. Sinchi es parte de ese atrevimiento que hemos adquirido los peruanos para jugar de visita en canchas gastronómicas.
Tribus sin calle

Qué duda cabe de que el sistema político peruano es premoderno. Luego de abortar esa modalidad institucional de agregar intereses y organizar colectivos –conocidos en Occidente como partidos políticos–, hemos adoptado una forma primaria de membresía y movilización: las tribus políticas.

Un huaico en España... y 200 años post Ayacucho

Dec 28, 2024 | elcomercio.pe | Carlos Melendez

Imagínese un huaico entrando por la puerta de su casa. Una masa incontrolable de lodo que inunda, lenta pero inexorablemente, su sala, su cocina, sus dormitorios, su cotidianeidad. Si las autoridades no han emitido las alertas oportunamente, lo más probable es que pierda sus pertenencias. Pero, dependiendo de la magnitud del desastre, también podría perder la vida.
Un día entre abril y julio

Dec 14, 2024 | elcomercio.pe | Carlos Melendez

La presidenta Dina Boluarte ha logrado un milagro político: unir a todos los peruanos. Encuestas con representatividad nacional (de las compañías más reputadas) y encuestas a élites empresariales (Ipsos para CADE Ejecutivos), coinciden en lo fundamental: la desaprobación a su gestión como mandataria es casi total. El porcentaje de quienes aún la defienden es igual al margen de error estadístico. Científicamente hablando, su apoyo es cero.

We’ve all experienced or heard about the tragedies resulting from extreme weather events, such as hurricanes Helene and Milton. While the consequences of these natural events have been dire, new Earth intelligence technologies and capabilities are enabling us to better predict them, learn from the ravages they leave behind, and find new ways to outsmart them.
Council Post: Learning From This Summer’s Software Mishaps: It’s Time To Get Back To Basics When It Comes To Effective Software Updates

Sep 18, 2024 | forbes.com | Carlos Melendez

Carlos M. Meléndez is the COO and cofounder of Wovenware, a Maxar company, offering AI and software development services. We may never realize how much the world relies on software until it doesn’t work. That’s a lesson that went into overdrive during the CrowdStrike software debacle that created the “largest IT outage in history” for millions of Microsoft Windows users.

Aug 31, 2024 | vktr.com | Carlos Melendez

How should enterprises approach cloud computing for AI? When IBM announced its acquisition of HashiCorp, a cloud management software provider and IBM’s second-largest acquisition ever, it put the spotlight on the growing need for IT managers everywhere to automate the use of multiple cloud computing platforms.
