When an Error Can Be Catastrophic

in CCC5 days ago (edited)

I cannot explain why, but the image immediately brought to my mind the series Chernobyl, possibly because my brain at first glance interpreted the meaning of the image as something serious.

There are many times when system errors, human failures, or catastrophic events put humanity to the test.

I like to think that, as in the series and as happens daily in real life, people show their best side, even sacrificing themselves for the general well-being.

In Chernobyl, as in other events of that magnitude, there were many unsung heroes who risked their lives and health for the rest of the world.

I wish that as humanity we could be a little more foresighted, avoiding possible risks, so we would not later have to mourn the loss of lives due to technical failures.


I invite everyone who enjoys writing to participate in the contest by following the guidelines indicated in the Contest post.

Cuando un error puede ser catastrófico

No puedo explicar el por qué, pero la imagen trajo inmediatamente a mi memoria la serie Chernobyl, posiblemente porque mi cerebro a primera vista interpretó como grave el significado de la imagen.

Hay muchas veces en las que errores de sistema, fallas humanas, o eventos catastróficos ponen a prueba al ser humano.

Me gusta pensar, que como en la serie, y como sucede a diario en la vida real, las personas muestran su mejor lado, sacrificándose incluso por el bienestar general.

En Chernobyl, como es otros eventos de esa magnitud, hubieron muchos héroes sin capa, que arriesgaron la vida y la salud por el resto del mundo.

Ojalá pudiéramos como humanidad ser un poco más previsores, y evitar posibles riesgos, para no tener que luego lamentar la pérdida de vidas por fallos técnicos.


Invito a participar del concurso a todo aquel que guste de escribir siguiendo las pautas indicadas en el post del Concurso

I’m afraid that when it comes to human error, there’s little that can be done about it. What can be addressed, however, is maintenance; and when there’s talk of overdue maintenance and its consequences, the situation is even worse. To be honest, I don’t believe in human goodness – if it had existed, this would surely have been noticed. It is remarkable how many disasters ultimately turn out to have been orchestrated and were no coincidence at all, and we are already heading for the next one. When it comes down to it, the wisest course is to trust your own intuition and, above all, to look after yourself. You have to be very close to people to be able to trust each other blindly, and we know what it’s like when money plays a role, power, dishonour, or a hidden agenda – then you can’t rely on anyone, let alone trust them.

It's true that human error is difficult to prevent. I imagine the Chernobyl disaster led to a slowdown in the full-scale development of nuclear energy, although now, with the situation in Iran, it's sure to be revived. I do believe in the goodness of certain people because I've experienced it. It's not absolute, that's true, and it's relative; it depends. Regarding trust, I agree that it's something we shouldn't do, especially with politicians and businesspeople, and sometimes not even with family, unfortunately. Thank you for always providing such an interesting perspective.

I don't believe it led to a slowdown because of a human error. If that would have been the case the entire world would have been put at a hold decennial earlier. Look at all those data leaks, car accidents with self driving ars, medical mistakes, Big Pharma killing and keeping people sick, and so on. It is done on purpose, same for saying there is a lack of oil. Oil is after water the second fluid earth has. Everything turns into oil (not just ash).
As long as you make people get used to something, depend on it,make them addictive, force them to use it and next say it's rare you have a way to make big money, spread fear, and dominate (reign).
Germany is stupid and closed down their plants saying it is EU bla bla bla, although they are the industrial country of the EU, and in France they simply don't care (also EU) and continue building them also help other EU countries.
If you know what happened before and during the second world War in Europe I see the same pattern today.
