[Chapter-delegates] Pokemon GO

[Mauro D. Rios]

No me despierta absolutamente ninguna simpatía PokemonGo.
*I do not relish nor cause me sympathy Pokemon Go.*

Si bien puedo coincidir que es un fenómeno social, además de un fenómeno
económico, me ha resultado un entretenimiento carente de sentido, limitado
de recursos, monótono. Me resulta un poco molesto aprovechar un recurso
tecnológico tan sofisticado como la realidad aumentada para algo tan
básico, tan visceral, tan mediocre. Algo que persigue un fin económico
puramente.

*While I agree that it is a social phenomenon, it is also an economic
phenomenon, I found it meaningless entertainment, limited resources,
monotonous. I find it a little annoying exploit such a sophisticated
technological resources, augmented reality, for something so basic, so
visceral, so mediocre. Something pursuing a purely economic purpose.*

Por otro lado me cuestiono las consecuencias que ha traído la práctica de
este juego. Casi como una patología social, nos ha obligado a cambiar
pautas de conductas y prevenir otras.
*On the other hand I question the consequences brought the practice of this
game. Almost like a social pathology, he has forced us to change behavior
patterns and prevent others.*

Cuando una APP obliga a municipalidades y gobernaciones a introducir nuevas
señales de tránsito, carteles y anuncios públicos de prevención y hasta un
manual de seguridad, es por que algo no está bien. (

*When a APP  requires municipalities and governorates to introduce new
traffic signs, posters and public service announcements to prevention and
safety manual, it is that something is not right.

Cuando una APP produce accidentes fatales, robos, disturbios, peleas, etc.,
algo no está bien. Pero más increíble es que las compañías de seguros
pongan en el mercado un seguro contra accidentes por jugar PokemonGo (

*When APP produces fatal accidents, theft, riots, fights, etc., something
is not right. But more amazing is the insurance companies put on the market
accident insurance for PokemonGo players.  (http://goo.gl/QfTh1N

Cuando el creador de una APP, se declara satanista, antisocial y reniega de
la evolución, y se propuso expresar todo eso en un juego, algo no está
bien. (http://goo.gl/h1oFzy)
*When the APP creator, is declared Satanist, antisocial and reneges on
evolution, and proposed to express all that in a game, something is not
right.*

Este no es el camino de la tecnología que quiero
*This is not the way I want for technology*
