The Humbling Part Comes First
I am two months into a new stage of the “getting healthy” journey. The journey that began two years ago when I decided it was time to lose the weight — that my aging bones could no longer handle the extra

Morality Through a Lens
Us humans are fascinated by the idea of morality. Almost all of us, with very few exceptions, think about it often, and carry, for better or worse, an internal compass that guides us. For something so

More than a coat of Paint for Snapie IO
The keen observer may have noticed I’ve been putting some work into snapie.io lately. Yes, it’s not supposed to be my main focus, since the mobile app is how this whole thing started, but I also can’t

Richard Dawkins and the AI Mirage
It seems like in the last few years, almost every other month, a concept I had of a public figure completely changes. So maybe it’s best I get used to it. Easy to say, hard to do. Prominent public intellectual
