The country’s ruler celebrated their birthday with a military parade while simultaneously protests against their authoritarian rule occurred in every state is the sort of news story Americans used to write about “failing third world democracies.”

A couple of days in Schwarzwald, Germany is like traveling 20 years back in time. The internet is 10 Mbits, restaurants only accept cash or...attention, Paypal. Germany

I may be late, but it just dawned on me that Chinese customers will not pay more for most US products. Those Nike shoes were already made in Asia!

Coining the term “identity politics” was a branding win for the right. It made it look like politics that centered Christian straight white males is normal and everything else an aberration. But eventually these other identities started winning rights and asking for equity.

The 40s are hitting. Who would have thought non-alcoholic beer, decaffeinated espresso and constant sickness would become the new normal? #1985

Because of some significant real estate purchase I was overexposed on international government bonds. Didn't like the portfolio imbalance...until today. 🤷‍♂️

This is my fourth once-in-a-generation economic crisis, ask me anything.

More and more governments are realizing Apple taxing every developer 30% of revenue and banning entire categories of apps without any alternative is an overreach. Imagine if Microsoft did this with Windows. We’d be up in arms yet it’s tolerated when Tim Apple does it.

Which car maker is most immune to the tariffs? Yes, it's probably that simple.

Trumps foreign policy works on a simple formula: the more you depend on America the worse he can treat you. So consider your actions accordingly.

I was recently introduced to the concept of “hypernormalization” coined to describe the Soviet Union. Hypernormalization is when the economic and social system is obviously broken, but instead of fixing it, people just accept it as normal because the truth is too complex or inconvenient to change.

Another reason not to shop at Amazon. I am of Europe and Pro Europe.

When you try to have a quiet train trip in Switzerland and look for a seat. Then its just kids or Americans, pick your poison. #loud

Imagine a world where every killed Palestinian would be named, mentioned in countless articles and mourned just like the Israeli hostages. Imagine the West would see them as humans.

Policy and determination. Everyone could do it, most can't. Bravo!

I would definitely refrain from air travel in the USA. The FAA lacked personnel even before #DOGE just randomly sacked people.

Volt wählen = verschenkte Stimme? 🤔 Moment mal Wer sagt das? Genau – die, die deine Stimme selbst wollen! ✅ Demokratie lebt von freier Wahl ✅ 7% der Deutschen wollen Volt im Bundestag ✅ Niemand darf dir vorschreiben, was du wählst! Deine Stimme zählt! 💪 #Volt #BTW #Bundestagswahl

An important point to keep in mind.

AI doesn’t replace thinking. It replaces lazy thinking. Make it work for you, not instead of you.

At least in the German-speaking world, household appliances like washing machines or dishwashers could profit from some UX/UI design. There are so many settings that no one understands, and in the end, we just use one for everything...

I'm very excited about getting access to the @meteoswiss weather data and API starting April. I have a little app idea…
