  • Try Raphael (classic) and Pablo Alboran. Both have easy to understand lyrics and it's mostly pleasant pop.

    For something more artsy try El Kanka. Great lyrics, more poetic with lots of word play but generally also easy to understand.

    On the other hand I have no idea what Extremoduro songs are about.

  • I live in Spain and I remember seeing a story in the local newspaper about a guy complaining that he was released from prison before he could finish some professional course he was doing (he got ~2 year sentence). He said that outside of prison he can't afford this type of education he was getting there for free. Just imagine, prison was actually offering him a way to a better job and life later. And that's not even the famous Norway, just normal Spain. This is how it should work. Locking up people just so they suffer for a bit is sick and pointless.

  • There's a great show on Netflix called '60 days in'. It's silly and exploitative on the surface but read between the lines and you will learn a lot about the justice system in US. It's basically designed to dehumanize and torture people with no presumption of innocence or any safeguards. The only goal is to punish as many people as possible. That's what the society expects from it and people that run it are happy to deliver.

  • As it's name implies, it's a crime. As such it's not legitimate but it's also not a sin. It's up to each individual and his morality to decide if he wants to be a criminal or not and it's up to the society to stop criminal behaviors that have negative impact on it as a whole.

  • But all those articles about Boeing issues will get more people to drive. It's ironic how fighting for higher flying safety standards can kill people. The surplus in car crash fatalities in the months after 9/11 was higher than the number of passengers on all the planes involved.

  • Globalization. Exploiting developing countries, export jobs and environmental damage, hiding profits. Not so long ago corporations had to be careful not to shit where they eat. Now they can shit in Asia and eat comfortably in USA/Europe. Everyone lost on that.

  • So this is around 4MB less, right? The small app I'm currently working on is 15MB so with this change it will be 11MB. Nice but nothing revolutionary. It will have bigger impact on a really tiny apps. I guess that's why it wasn't resolved for so long.
