Why am I creating a blog in 2026?

Just as the Neolithic period is to history, blogs are to the history of the internet. With the rise of social media, search algorithms have begun to prioritize recommending them over traditional blogs, with immense algorithms specifically designed to keep you within these networks for as long as possible, thus profiting from AdSense and directly influencing your emotions in a Spinozist sense. What I’m aiming for here by creating this blog is the opposite movement, inspired by Mark Fisher’s K-punk. I intend to write about everything that affects me, not depending on a recommendation algorithm and distancing myself from social networks like Twitter, Substack, Instagram, etc.

Because of all this, using the HuGo framework and a ready-made theme customized by me, I created this blog. My goal is to go against the grain of the direction the internet is taking, studying ways to escape sloppification/enshittification. Writing about philosophy of science, psychology, economics, politics (not regularly to avoid burnout) and, without a doubt, about technology/programming.

In addition to the leisure time needed to formulate and elaborate ideas for blogposts about what I truly want to talk about, I believe that the biggest challenge is to be able to put my thoughts into words in a didactic way, since my thinking is never linear and I always end up getting lost in writing and leaving everything so confusing when in my head everything makes so much sense and after a certain time when I go back to old texts I end up hating and often in a somewhat cowardly way, I erase them. In this project I will do something different, instead of simply deleting, I will try my best to make another blogpost explaining point by point where I went wrong, why I made a mistake and correcting the mistake. In this way, I show that just as my thinking is not linear, my construction as a subject/my maturation of ideas is not either, and this is something very interesting to show.

And I see that intellectual humility—in the sense of being okay with the fact that I’m not always right, or rather, not taking the position of holder of absolute truth, which is by definition an epistemological obstacle (belief in knowing the truth)—is something that is lacking in the production of content (especially the production of scientific content) on the internet. And I see all of this as a duty as someone who enjoys learning and always seeks to be in motion, avoiding intellectual stagnation.
