Biography

Wyld was born as son of Guillermo Wyld Quiñones and his wife Soledad Ospina Chaparro, a niece of the Colombian president Mariano Ospina Rodríguez. His paternal grandfather was English.[2]

Wyld spent periods in Mexico and in Guatemala City, but most of his life he lived in Quetzaltenango. Together with Porfirio Barba Jacob he founded the paper Churubusc in Mexico, and was also director of the Guatemalan paperEl Zaraguat. Like Alberto Velásquez Günther, Carlos Mérida and Rafael Yela Günther, he joined the writers' group Los Líricos.[3] He was a member of the Academia Guatemalteca de la Lengua and of the Sociedad de Geografía e Historia (Society of Geography and History).

gollark: <@651869752012046347> Yes, technology was a mistake. I'm very unhappy that we have much higher life expectancy, quality of life, have reliable clean water and food, can communicate with people remotely really easily, and have much better entertainment than before the industrial era.
gollark: SQLite is a database, just an embedded one.
gollark: I'm going to look into making Node.js use multiple *processes*, and putting SQLite in WAL mode so that it can do multiple reads at once.
gollark: It's SQLite and the application is Node.js. Both of which are totally single-threaded. Which is probably why.
gollark: I put together this simple search engine thing (https://search.osmarks.tk) as a fun project to try and practice building somewhat complex applications. It seemed to work fine on the test dataset of my website. But then I got bored and decided to have it crawl esolangs.org, and it's about a 14th of the way through after running for maybe an hour (at 1 page crawled/second), queries are running quite slowly, and the lack of pagination is causing problems. I guess this is a lesson in scaling?
