This page is inspired by Derek Sivers’s post The /now Page Movement . The purpose of this page is to share what I’m currently focussed on, and will be updated as things change.
This is both for longer-lived interests/ideals and shorter-lived “what I’m currently doing”.
What topics do I love ? ❤️
- Technology
- Socialism
- Food
- Art
What are my beliefs and ideals?
- Simplicity and Minimalism
- I believe technology is one of the most powerful tools to solve most problems.
- I believe the world is not fair, and equal opportunity is a myth but we must strive to build an equal society.
- I reject all kinds of discrimination and I am against “essentialism” especially when applied to humans.
- I believe artists make this life worth living and also pave the way for the future. I aspire to be one among them.
