Since February 2nd of 2022 (2/2/22), Dubai’s new Museum of the Future has been welcoming guests to the world of 2071. Construction of what might be the most beautiful building in the world took a little over six years and as to what lays inside – we could quite rightly say that it took fifty…
If you haven’t been paying attention, there is a war going on. It’s not a cold war or a hot war – it’s something brand new. We are on the cusp of civilization changing technology reshaping our world and our species – how that reshaping takes place depends on who wins the war. Will it…
I just finished reading Sapiens by Yuval Noah Hariri. In my life, I’ve read many thousands of books. This is the one I wish everyone would read. Seriously. It had a few issues – but ultimately – at this moment in time, if someone were to ask me “What one book do you recommend that…
