Ever since David Zaslav took over HBO Max — and long before its painfully boring rebrand — I’ve quietly mourned the death of what I once considered to be the greatest streaming platform of all time. I’ve also been quietly seething over my deep disdain for this guy. To call...

Embracing growth is a transformative journey, one that demands we shed the layers of our fixed beliefs. It’s a process of unlearning, of peeling back the misconceptions that have held us captive. Consider the fixed mindset: “They left me.” It’s a narrative that anchors us ...

Something cool you’ll notice in the gifs is an animated character preview that goes through the level. It’s not too fancy, as it doesn’t actually interact with any of the obstacles, but it’s a fun little visual preview that didn’t require a ton of ef...

The story of Socrates, as well as the story of Athens, is inextricably bound up with the fate of Alcibiades, the golden boy of the Golden Age. Alcibiades’ rise and fall, and his second rise and fall, propelled Athens ever on like some sort of tragic destiny. In 420 BC Athens was basking i...

Rio de Janeiro is a city that is as easy to love as Paris. Although I am now returned to Portland after my two and a half weeks in Brazil, the enchantment of Rio has not yet fully worn off, and I hope to carry it with me for as long as I can hang on to it — preferably until I can return, altho...

When I first arrived in the US at age 30, I owed more than I owned. Planning for retirement was nowhere on my radar. Over time, things changed to the point that I could afford to retire tomorrow. I won’t, because I’d have to make compromises I prefer to avoid, because I enjoy what ...

On May 26th, I shut the door to my classroom for the last time. I took one final look around before shutting the door. When the door closed, I checked to make sure it was locked. In my small bag, I carried the few personal belongings that had been in my desk and made my way down the hallway for the ...

The Supreme Court verdict about Nigeria’s presidential election drew varying reactions from different quarters; those who saw themselves on the winning side, and those who saw themselves on the other side. Without doubt, no-one wants to experience ‘defeat’. The kind of emotions ...

Call me old fashioned, but I like my white billionaires to employ a Dr. Evil, James Bond-esque style of villainy. Self-driving electric vehicles, deep sea exploration in remote-controlled sardine cans, space tourism for the wealthy (black and brown countries are going out of style, duh) just to name...

Artificial intelligence (AI) will facilitate progress in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). The realization that STEM is the root of power on Earth will gradually end the myth of “white” superiority. The history of England shows how STEM transformed an island inhabited by...

As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly advanced and embedded in our daily lives, a new generation of systems has emerged that can engage in natural language conversations like humans. These so-called “Conversational AI” technologies promise tremendous benefits but also pose nove...

Myown conflict with authority began at an early age, when I realized pretty quickly that adults were not only quite fallible, but often incompetent as well. This can be a frightening thing to learn as a child, but I was not to be deterred. I simply assumed I would need to care for myself, make my ow...
