Technology is a mess and we're all slave to it. This morning I woke up and found two emails I wasn't particularly happy about. The first email said "welcome to Such and Such Financial Services (fictitious name), please confirm your email", the secon...

A while back, Bosch, the multinational engineering and tech giant, published the results of a market research the company had conducted. According to the study, 72 percent of people surveyed believe technology makes the world a better place. Would y...

What's the shelf life of an article on Publish0x

When it comes to the 'shelf life' of a piece of content, most algorithms work the same way. Whatever you post takes a moment or two to pick up traffic, then it goes parabolic, then it dies down, then it nearly disappears. This is always true, but l...

When it comes to investing, bad and good are (sometimes) fluid concept. Buying Bitcoin when it peaked at $20,000 in 2017 was a bad investment through 2018 and 2019 and 2020. But what about today? But the investment I made in Mullen ($MULN) was a ba...

I upgraded again

A while back I mentioned my early mid-life crisis, which then peaked when I got excited about paying a new pan. But good things come with it as well. Because of my mid-life crisis, I'm now investing in assets I didn't necessarily care about before,...

Not sure when or where I read that but I once remember reading a quote: "your content is your currency". It was a long time ago, back when the idea of making a living out of creating content and writing stuff on the internet was insane. People laug...

A woman had her flight cancelled after oversharing on social media. The woman posted an unfiltered and unedited photograph of her booking, which included absolutely everything from her full government name to her booking ID, and apparently somebody...

I'm on the subject of peanut better because I just had banana bread with lunch. I mean, after lunch. Dessert. But anyway, long story short, I ordered banana bread from a local bakery and they added peanut butter on top of it. And I've just realised...

The art of saying 'sure no problem', when you really want to say 'oh fcuk you'

17 Oct 2025 1 minute read 0 comments LeftFooted $0.11

One of the most useful things I've learnt as an adult is that in life, you often have to say 'sure no problem', when you really want to say 'oh get the fcuk out of here'. A lot of people seem to live in fantasies where they're their own bosses, and...

Bitcoin will either get to $1 million or at 0, but Elon Musk's net worth is proof that all that talk about market cap is BS

17 Oct 2025 1 minute read 0 comments LeftFooted $0.10

We're always reading projections and predictions about the price of several assets, not just Bitcoin, and whenever the prediction or that projection gets a little bit too high, a little bit too bold, people always respond with the same objection. "T...
