When I told one of the guys from the Sui Fondation that I loved the catering at Sui Basecamp he looked at me like I was crazy. Like I got it all wrong. But I didn't get it wrong. I apologise if I come across as a know-it-all a-hole here but, if you...

It's hard to believe, I know, but you could get a job as a 'Headline Strategist', if you wanted to. It's a thing. It's an actual job, a job description and position. Most companies don't have a headline strategist, of course, and if they do, the he...

My partner (whose name is UX Designer) and I recently decided we needed some space, and are now living under different roofs. And when I say WE, I don't actually mean we, because it wasn't my decision. But whatever, life goes on and one of the coll...

I'm assuming you've all noticed, but centralisation is one of the world's recurring issues. And I'm not talking about crypto. Few large companies own most of the platforms we use. If, for example, you work in the media, you're at the mercy of Googl...

I'm gonna keep this brief. Almost exactly 10 years ago I left a job I hated to pursue my dream of becoming a full time writer. That horrible job experience also laid the first brick to build the wall between myself and my homeland. I began to desp...
