Stop looking at the big numbers. Seriously, put the spec sheet down. Every year, I watch the tech press hyperventilate over geekbench scores and nit counts as if they actually change how we use our phones. They don’t. But the whispers surrounding the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra? They’re different. For the first time in a … Read more
Everyone assumes they know the score. In one corner, you have the United States: the heavyweight champion of the world, a monolith of wealth and military hardware. In the other, Papua New Guinea (PNG): a developing island nation, rugged and remote. On paper, it looks like a mismatch. A blowout. But paper lies. I’ve spent … Read more
You think you understand pressure? Try standing in the TU Cricket Ground when the home team is chasing a target that seems mathematically impossible. A World Cup qualifier isn’t just a tournament; it’s a meat grinder. Every run is a lifeline, every wicket a punch to the gut. I’ve covered enough cricket to know when … Read more
1.0 Introduction: The Night the World Stopped You think you know the story. Big muscles, bad acting, good conquering evil. But if you peel back the curtain on WWE’s Saturday Night’s Main Event (SNME), you don’t find a simple variety show. You find a funhouse mirror reflecting American culture right back at us.

In a league desperate for credibility, here was a team launching with a color palette that looked less like a football club and more like a Grand Theft … Read more
Forget the caricature. You know the one. The ruthless, vest-wearing hedge fund manager obsessed with quarterly earnings and nothing else. It’s a tired trope. And honestly? It’s boring. Mala Gaonkar isn’t just ignoring that stereotype; she’s taking a sledgehammer to it. I’ve spent years tracking the movers and shakers of high finance, and usually, the … Read more
Introduction We all wanted to believe it. The “post-smartphone” dream. It sounded intoxicating, didn’t it? A world where we could finally lift our heads from our glowing rectangles, guided by a benevolent, screenless voice pinned to our chests. Humane sold us that dream with the confidence of a cult leader. Then reality hit. And it … Read more
I used to believe the soul of cricket lived in the dust of a crumbling pitch in Mumbai or the hushed reverence of a Test at Lord’s. I was wrong. If you’re still watching the boundary ropes for the future of this sport, you’re looking in the wrong direction. The real action? It’s buried in … Read more
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before. To win, you must suffer. You need to wake up at 4:00 AM, drink raw eggs, and hit forehands until your calluses have calluses. We treat elite performance like a math problem where Effort + Time = Glory. It’s a nice story. It sells sneakers. But it’s … Read more
You can smell the panic on LinkedIn. It’s thick. Every morning, the feed is a graveyard of “Open to Work” banners and shell-shocked farewell posts from people who thought they were lifers.
