OPINION PIECES: LOVE IT, LOATHE IT
Everyone has their own opinions on matters and I’m no different. I believe all opinions are important and have the right to be voiced, and firmly believe in the values of debate, diversity, and open mindedness, because being closed to any of these diminishes all of us in the long run. Here you can explore some of those opinions and points of view.
PODCASTS: LISTEN, LEARN, REFLECT
Technology development and societal rates of change are now so fast that often the best way to keep current with them all is via podcasts so I contribute as much as I can. You can hear all of the replays here.
