Hemingway on collapse: “Gradually, then suddenly.”

That’s what this week’s market selloff felt like.

In wicked environments like markets and careers, the playbook is the same: stay resilience and adaptable!

Erkekler Krizde! (Ama Fırsatlar Ne?) Gelir adaletsizliği, algoritmalar ve yalnızlık: Toksik maskülenlik yükseliyor. Peki panzehir ne? Omurga, empati ve adaptasyon....

Gelir adaletsizliği, algoritmalar ve yalnızlık toksik maskülenliği besliyor.

Dünya bir “erkeklik” krizi ile karşı karşıya.

Bu konuyu GQ Türkiye için Ceren Zeytinoglu ile konuştuk👇🏼

You can’t “run” Venezuela while Padrino López, Diosdado Cabello, and the Rodríguez family remain in the country.

This is not how foreign policy works and the global implications are serious

Trump’s statement made an already bad significantly worse. He’s treating statecraft like asset management,confusing “running a country” with taking over oil fields in Venezuela.

This isn’t a slip. His repeated fixation on money says the quiet part out loud and undercuts any remaining credibility

The Build Barrier Is Gone Why execution is no longer the bottleneck in software. AI collapsed the gap between thinking and building software. Execution is no longer scarce. Judgment is.

Do you have a great software idea but no experience in coding?

Now you can build your app within minutes!

This is a major paradigm change!

The Deep Dive: What Is the Biggest Long-Term Cost of NEET Loss? Inside the quiet crisis pushing a generation out of work, purpose, and the future.

A country’s future depends on its young people, their skills, their direction, and their belief that they have a place in the world.

AI will shape who rises and who falls, but it cannot replace the energy of an entire generation.

Everyone was busy debating TikTok trends like “quiet quitting.”

That’s the crisis.

The Floridi Conjecture nails today’s AI tension: you can’t maximize both scope and certainty.

LLMs can write poems, summarize court cases, code, and translate - yet still hallucinate.

Vertical AI wins where precision matters.
