Classic science editor instincts paired with libertarian leanings.What’s missing is scale, speed, and feedback loops especially across food systems, cities, and entire nations.

History doesn’t begin at the start of a free course. Strange how a single equity programme triggers outrage while structural exclusion just passes for tradition.

The more members BRICS adds, the clearer it becomes what’s missing. Tim Marshall cutting through the multipolar hype with his usual clarity.

Not often do you see a historian praised in three dimensions: fact, fire and wit. Finkelstein may have stood alone for years, but he was never out of place.

A story today from 1980s Baghdad where conviction became a death sentence and “traitors” became lifelines, hit like truth wrapped in fire. Still thinking about it.

When you scale beyond vision, what catches you isn’t failure. It’s inertia. A thread about Apple, AI and the cost of time.

Oddly grounding, a man and his dog watching the moon like it’s the only headline worth reading.

Some run supply chains. Others just cut out the middleman.
