I didn't exhaustively scanned each entry, but sampled many (> 15) and one thing that I found to be odd was that all of them were male. I'm not sure if it's cultural but it's quite …

How does this 2014 article by an ex boss of Microsoft, who hasn’t been involved in any day to day activities of it for more than a decade, explain this contract in 2019?

I don’t have any personal objections with how Bezos decides to use his money, but to your point of books — how’s your local library? I recently realized I was spending some non-neg…

Coincidentally, I watched this vice news documentary earlier today that shows the current situation in China: https://youtu.be/v7AYyUqrMuQ through undercover reporting.

We can just see her as another woman who has specialized in tidying home and is sharing her best practices now. Extrapolating it to a soft-power attack by Japan is similar to China…

Agreed! If anything, the law and the enforcement agencies should be questioned on how the accused was let loose if he was guilty of rape earlier. Here's a screenshot doing rounds o…
