In the waters off Dominica, a miracle is unfolding—quietly, rhythmically, click by click. For centuries, we believed ourselves to be the only species with true language. Syntax. Grammar. Culture. But now, that myth is dissolving in the deep. A team of AI researchers, linguists, and marine biologists is on the brink of something historic: decoding the complex, structured, possibly combinatorial language of sperm whales.Yes, language. Not grunts. Not signals. But potentially an entire symbolic system passed from grandmother to calf like stories around a campfire. Their language is made of ...

Una excelente puerta de entrada a uno de los grandes maestros de la literatura rusa. El relato más largo de este libro, "La sala número seis", narra el lento y fatal proceso por el cual el viejo director de un hospital de pueblo —donde están aislados unos dementes—, acaba por ser encerrado en esa sala de la locura. El resto de los cuentos recogidos van desde lo grotesco, como en "Un drama", en el que un autor teatral mata a una señora con un pisapapeles, hasta la candidez de la adolescencia, presente en ese relato en el que la protagonista escribe una carta a un supuesto enamorado.

In this raw, unfiltered dispatch from the heart, Anton Volney pulls back the curtain on a lifelong habit that nearly destroyed him—pathological over-giving. Trained from childhood to win love by being useful, he found himself in a pattern of one-sided relationships, emotional exhaustion, and invisible self-abandonment. But then something snapped.

Gusev is an 1890 short story by Anton Chekhov. Several discharged soldiers return home from the Far East by ship.
