Are programmers the new bankers?
Programmers used to be perceived as those pale guys with thick glasses and pony tails, with wardrobe stuck somewhat ten years behind anyone else’s. Slightly awkward and rarely social, spending their time

... but I don’t want to reach MY target audience
Internet is driven by a strong force of a network effect, we all know that. In order to reach the people who might be interested in whatever you share, you need to put a buzzword in the title, use some

Be it for advertisement or pushing forward an ideological agenda, I was always in strong oppostion to manipulation and propaganda. With my heart and mind I believed that spreading information and rational

Don’t believe you can be whatever you want to be

The modern fairy tale: Tinder and sex tourism

When you’re 30, is it too late to rewire your brain?
Frankly, I don’t know the answer to that question. But as I am nearly 30 and I am struggling to take action to change not only my habits, behavior and attitude, but also the underlying triggers, I certainly
