Just under two weeks until the @tech.eu summit! If you missed out on speaker or pitching slots but would like to get yourself or your company promoted, you could host a side event. A chance to get together informally is ALWAYS a great way to build connections. tech.eu/event/2025/s...

Looking forward to it!

Not the flex you think it is...

Wait, you get accidentally pregnant from someone else's embryo, bond with the child, then get sued for custody and you get a mere $75K?! abcnews.go.com/Health/insid...

It's a great campaign from the pretty right-wing mainstream Australian media www.news.com.au/lifestyle/re...

The best thing about Deep Seek is Sam Altman complaining that it stole OpenAI data after it stole our data without renumeration

Great initiative!

Didn't know New Zealanders were such suck ups to Trump www.reuters.com/world/new-ze...

www.wired.com/story/people... “Part of what is worrying,” Moynihan adds, “is the lack of ethical guardrails in the current Trump administration, where there doesn’t seem to be a clear line between Trump’s businesses and the presidency

He's not wrong www.pedestrian.tv/news/wa-prem...

not a fun evening to be in athens www.ekathimerini.com/news/1263317...

I meet a lot of folks in the startup ecosystem looking for the next place to call home. The cost of living has increased while the wages for many remain stagnant. But where to go next? One European founder chose Ukraine. tech.eu/2025/03/03/t...

colour me surprised www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Telescope is a really cool company doing climate risk compliance in real estate. This includes biodiversity management which is a huge issue where my folks live in Australia as new builds are moving kangaroos inward into the suburbs.

indeed

Ahem

And let me add, Zelensky is a leader and a warrior. Trump is a convicted felon.

This makes me feel sick.

Horrified by this display of bullying and disrespect. Ukraine was invaded FFS. Zelensky's self restraint while he gets changed constantly belittled and talked over is more than I could ever do www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

What did they expect?! edition.cnn.com/2025/02/27/t...
