Has anyone thought that WFH is just sustainable?
I mean the obvious: commuting is polluting. This is too obvious. On top, we build our solis twice: different building to work, different to live. In fact we replicate all that tech and human modern living standards twice. Elevators, artificial lighting (because we all know it’s bad to have office space with natural lighting flooding…

Food, pleasure and evolution
I paid a visit to a dietician today. He also happens to have received full medical training. Obviously a combination of covid, WFH and age took their toll on my what-I-wish-to-remember-as-gorgeous (ha!) body, He bothered to explain that our lizard brains seek joy no matter what. Our lizard brain enjoys comfort food and sugary/ salty…

What we know. Who we know. Who we are and whom we let define us
Often in life we have to throw ourselves out there. We are in quest of people or positions or solutions. We introduce ourselves, we act, we say things. We fill ourselves with hope. We create expectations. We stumble. We fall. We get disappointed. We might find the courage and the resilience to start all over…

Bonds
Oxford Languages gives this definition of a bond: “a connection between two surfaces or objects that have been joined together, especially by means of an adhesive substance, heat, or pressure”. I think that human bonds surely comply with that definition: we bond because of an adhesive substance. Pressure in fact could be it, same as…

Titanic cost benefit failure?
I guess this post is a common ground for most of us. There is so much pain in the world. So many inexplicable, unfortunate and terrible ways people die or get hurt. The sea itself has swallowed so many people – marines, sailors, immigrants. And yet some people would pay anything for a thrill. Immigrants…

“Bring your whole self to work”
You must have heard of that one right? What does it mean exactly? Yes of course, you should be free to bring yourself to work. No matter your colour, your size, your sex tastes. But wait a minute: is your sex taste relevant to the workplace in the first place? Why would you bring that…

The Lizard brain
So we are not entirely sapiens. There is a residue from our monkey days: our lizard brain. It makes us irrational, incomprehensible (without it, this blog would not even exist!). We try to figure it all out using the rest of our brain. But we have not fully discovered how our brain works (even though…

Law – lagging behind
There is a famous line that goes something like the burglar is always a step ahead than those inventing armed doors. Law seems to be in that armed door merchant position (again I must say). Everybody knew someone somewhere is developing, improving, just playing with AI. Data has been gathered and harvested openly and fully.…
