“Transhumanism is Terrorism (The Sonnet)

Intelligence comes easy, accountability not so much,
Yet intelligence is complex, accountability is simple.
Technology comes easy, transformation not so much,
Yet technology is complicated, transformation is simple.
In olden days there were just nutters of fundamentalism,
Today there are nutters of nationalism and transhumanism.
Some are obsessed with land, others with digital avatars,
While humanity battles age-old crises like starvationism.
When too much logic, coldness and pomposity set in,
Common sense humanity goes out of the window.
Once upon a time religion was the opium of all people,
Today transhumanism and singularity are opium of the shallow.
To replace the sky god with a computer god isn't advancement.
Real advancement is when nobody suffers from scarcity of sustenance.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Amantes Assemble: 100 Sonnets of Servant Sultans

“Transhumanism is terrorism, for it is the very antithesis of life. Wasting precious resources on a pompous, narcissistic and megalomaniacal dream of extending life through cold, mechanical means, instead of helping to improve genuine human condition, transhumanists act as modern day terrorists who desecrate the very spirit of life and liberty without ever being held accountable. Let me tell you as a brain scientist and a computer engineering dropout - transhumanism is to brain computer interface, what nuclear weapons are to nuclear physics.”

“That's what scriving is. Reality doesn't matter. If you can change something's mind enough, it'll believe whatever reality you choose.”

“Labor of AI (The Sonnet)

Asking AI to help you
write, is not writing.
Asking AI to tune your
voice, is not singing.

Asking AI to help you
paint, is not painting.
Asking AI to help you
code, is not coding.

Asking AI to help you
create, is not creativity.
Asking AI to build your
dream, is not dreaming.

Asking AI to narrate
books, is not storytelling.
AI oughta do manual labor,
so humans can do the creating.”

“As someone who progressed from typing 30 words per minute (wpm) to 140 wpm, I have witnessed firsthand how a faster typing speed can improve the quality of life. Faster typists save time, work efficiently, and deliver on their creative and intellectual potential. Indeed, the skill of typing is an especially tremendous asset for students, writers, programmers, translators, white collar workers, and people who otherwise spend a substantial amount of time online.”

“Stay Behind (The Sonnet)

While mine owners' kids are packing,
Their mittens to colonize Mars,
How about you stay behind,
To give light as an earthly human star!
I am not here to teach you how to code,
I am here to show you why code.
I am not here to teach you science,
But to humanize the scientific road.
Okay if they don't know the role of science,
You for one, don't walk in their dirtsteps.
You are wise, brave, and above all, human,
Be the practitioner of humanitarian science.
Science is superpower, always use it wisely.
Little science does much harm if used recklessly.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Corazon Calamidad: Obedient to None, Oppressive to None

“By breaking our application into individual, independently deployable processes, we open up a host of mechanisms to improve the robustness of our applications. By using microservices, we are able to implement a more robust architecture, because functionality is decomposed, that is, an impact in one area of functionality may not bring down the whole system, we also can focus our time and energy on those parts of the application that most require robustness, ensuring critical parts of our system remain operational.”
― Sam Newman, Monolith to Microservices: Evolutionary Patterns to Transform Your Monolith

“Resilience versus Robustness.
Typically when we want to improve a system’s ability to avoid outages, handle failures gracefully when they occur and recover quickly when they happen, we often talk about resilience. (…) Robustness is the ability of a system that is able to react to expected variations, Resilience is having an organisation capable of adapting to things that have not been thought of, which could very well include creating a culture of experimentation through things like chaos engineering.
For example, we are aware a specific machine could die, so we might bring redundancy into our system by load-balancing an instance, that is an example of addressing Robustness. Resiliency is the process of an organisation preparing itself to the fact that it cannot anticipate all potential problems. An important consideration here is that microservices do not necessarily give you robustness for free, rather they open up opportunities to design a system in such a way that it can better tolerate network partitions, service outages, and the like. Just spreading your functionality over multiple separate processed and separate machines does not guarantee improved robustness, quite the contrary, it may just increase your surface area of failure.”

“Math, Bio, Physics, Chem and Code, these five can make or break society.”

“No language speaks to computers better than code,
No language speaks of matter better than physics.
No language speaks of mind better than neurology,
No language speaks pattern better than mathematics.
No language speaks of thought better than philosophy,
No language speaks of emotion better than poetry.
No language speaks of justice better than sociology,
No language speaks of behavior better than psychology.”

“Once upon a time at my university dorm,
They used to gather around to hear me mumble.
So I had to put my coding assignment aside,
I loved machines, more I loved workings mental.

Through a rollercoaster ride of uncharted ocean,
Engineer became monk, monk emerged scientist.
Despite the thrill of building cars and rockets,
I feel more alive in being the human bridge.

Thus goes the odyssey of the bulldozer on duty.
Before we innovate tech, we gotta renovate humanity.”

“No AI model must produce any material without some form of digital signature embedded in them, that effectively makes the distinction between AI generated content and human material mainstream. If developers fail to stand accountable out of their own free will, they must be held accountable legally.”

“Code War (Sonnet 1317)

The next world war is
not gonna be a cold war,
it's gonna be a code war.
Forget about conscious AI,
ethicless AI is the real danger.

Codes don't have to be conscious,
to do great damage to the world.
ChatGPT, Deepfake, Dall-E, none
are sentient, yet there is no limit
to them-produced fraud and havoc.

Without a basic righteousness code,
Fanciest of algorithm is mindless junk.
If you cannot figure out how to do that,
Abandon digital and build back analog.

Focus on ethical AI, rather than smarter AI,
If you are human, and wanna help the world.
If you're a robot who thinks logic is king,
Get yourself admitted, for you are in muck.”

“Just because coding was based in logical cause and effect didn't mean there was only ever one way to do something. In fact, there was almost always more than one way to arrive at a solution.”

“The Humanitarian Nerd
(Sonnet 1538)

Machines have a tendency of
disconnecting mind from society.
Unless you're driven by a humane dream,
silicon dreams only facilitate inhumanity.

Worse than silicosis is silicon psychosis,
Worse than septicemia es la indiferencia.
Worse than writer's block is fighter's block,
to settle in ice-age is insult of la conciencia.

Before you master raspberry and arduino,
learn to master common everyday humanity.
If you're not burning with the fire to do good,
there's no point to your gray's anatomy.”
