HLA Hart: law's not explained as commands, rather by virtue of its normativity, the internal point of view justifying criticizing other's non-compliance, albeit self-interest can motivate all this; Raz: hmm, self-interest can't likely explain criticizing other's non-compliance.

@RobertoCeledonF Felicitaciones Roberto, fue un gusto contribuir y asistir.

Con profunda emoción y gratitud recibí la sorpresa de este homenaje académico y humano que representa el libro “Los Derechos Humanos y su Potencial Transformador”, obra presentada en la Facultad de Derecho de la Universidad de Chile y dedicada a mi trayectoria. Nunca imaginé que tantas personas queridas, colegas, académicos y defensores de la dignidad humana se reunirían en torno a una publicación que busca reflexionar sobre el valor transformador de los derechos humanos en nuestra sociedad. Este reconocimiento, impulsado por el Gonzalo Aguilar Cavallo y acompañado por destacadas voces como la Dra. Constanza Núñez Donald, el Dr. Domingo Hernández Emparanza, el Dr. Humberto Nogueira Alcalá y la Dra. María Ignacia Sandoval Gallardo, lo recibo con humildad y como un estímulo para seguir defendiendo la justicia, la democracia y la dignidad de las personas. Mi más sincero agradecimiento a la Universidad de Chile, al Centro de Derechos Humanos, a Editorial Hammurabi y a todas y todos quienes hicieron posible este emotivo homenaje. ❤️

@JamesWHankins1 Congratulations to you and to the new Ph. D.

My last PHD dissertation defense at Harvard, and it was a great one! My Azerbaijani student Sama Mammadova gave us a history of consumer banking from the Renaissance to the 18th c. Next time you go to your local bank, remember that we owe the practice of lending to the poor and less well off to the Franciscans. It was first advocated by the Observant Franciscans of 15th c. Italy, who talked Pope Leo X (a Medici!) in 1515 into authorizing the practice of allowing interest to be charged on loans -- under the guidance of canon law of course (which established a principle for deciding on a just interest rate). So forget the old 'Weber thesis'-- this was 2 years before the outbreak of the Protestant Reformation! @ufhamilton @LawLiberty @PostlibOrder

@JamesWHankins1 Was St Thomas of Aquinas who prohibited the interest in lending money even to por people? Argentas no parit argentas.

A Canadian musician named Dave Carroll was on a flight from Halifax to Omaha, USA in 2008 when a passenger behind him looked out the window during a stopover and said, “Oh my God, they’re throwing guitars out there.” Carroll arrived at his destination to find his $3,500 Taylor acoustic, an instrument he’d saved for months to buy, smashed with a hole through the body. He spent the next 9 months trying to get United Airlines to pay for it. They told him he’d missed the 24-hour claim window. So he wrote a country song called “United Breaks Guitars,” shot a music video on a $150 budget, and put it on YouTube. It hit 150,000 views in a day, 5 million in a month, and now sits at around 30 million. Within four weeks of the upload, the Times of London was reporting that United’s stock had dropped 10%, costing shareholders around $180 million. The airline phoned to apologise. The CEO of Taylor Guitars phoned to give him two free guitars. United later asked if they could use the video to train their own customer service staff. Then, one trip later, they lost his luggage.

Este curso he dejado de pedir trabajos por ordenador a los estudiantes. Hacen prácticas a mano en clase, debates y exposiciones orales El cambio ha sido radical La IA no “mejora” cómo escriben los estudiantes. Al revés. Destruye su capacidad cognitiva Te comparto mi experiencia🧵

@drudolph_ii @RichRaho I write in a Spanish keyboard. Sorry for spelling mistakes

@RichRaho I recall hearing that Pope Francis had a similar problem trying to cancel his newspaper subscription after his election!

About two months after Robert Francis Prevost became Pope Leo XIV, he put in a call to his bank back home, a close friend, the Rev. Tom McCarthy, told a gathering of Catholics last week. The new pope identified himself as Robert Prevost, saying that he wished to change the phone number and address that the bank had on file. The pope answered the security questions correctly. Then, the woman on the line for the bank told him that it wasn’t enough — he would have to come to the branch in person. “He said, ‘Well, I’m not going to be able to do that,’” Father McCarthy said in a video clip shared on social media. The pope tried a different tack. “Would it matter to you if I told you I’m Pope Leo?” he asked, according to Father McCarthy. She hung up.

@drudolph_ii @RichRaho No, he could cancel the suscripción due to a telephone call of the gentleman who delivers the newspaper in Buenos Aires. The problem was with the the receptionist in the Jesuit Headquarters. He could not believe that the one falling was the Pope, so he hang up.

Interesante para ayudar a gatos y perros asmáticos.

@Dr_Atoosa @GoogleDeepMind Congratulations. If interested in international, let me know, se are working on that at ILA.

🌟 Big personal news: I’m joining @GoogleDeepMind full-time in London starting this week. I’ll be working on the implications of AGI for human life, science, and society; on what it means to live, connect, and discover in a world where cognitive agency is no longer uniquely ours. The way we answer these questions will define what it means to be human. I can’t think of a better place to do it.

@ifeosaa Congratulations. A great step forward in life.

On April 28, 2026, I defended my PhD at Harvard. I’m still in awe—of the moment and its meaning, the community that held me, and the grace that made it possible. God who began the good work carried it through. And I am so grateful for this. #dream #phd #harvard #journey #grace

In case you forgot, a robot built by humans is driving across Mars and sending back crystal-clear photos. You can literally see rocks from a planet 140 million miles away. It’s one of the most incredible things we get to witness together. 🌍✨
