An article all about the trend towards smart homes and tech players locking you in their eco-systems.. might there also be a trend toward more low tech homes, or at least only adding tech to life areas where it leads to substantive improvement washingtonpost.com/technology/202…


Great story.. ideas that resonate: "We hold ourselves back so much in life. I've not always believed in myself but I've kept doing it anyway."; the second, our work life is a 50yr project, u can have 2nd and 3rd careers - hard but possible. nzherald.co.nz/rotorua-daily-…


I guess we’ll see very soon if there has been a shift or just a continuation of the strong momentum Biden took out of Super Tuesday last week.

Will we see another swing in the momentum of the Democratic primaries to Sanders with Super Tuesday II this week? Panellists on the #FridayDownload talk about the importance of the the narrative of momentum to a candidate’s success. More here: buff.ly/39DxIEe

This article placed and approved by China's Government censors may just have changed New Zealand's economic outlook for years to come. Bit surprised the NZ$ hasn't fallen on it. globaltimes.cn/content/113875…

Michael Kovrig's unjust detention in China is the canary in the coal mine. If the democracies don't stand firmly and collectively against such hostage-taking now, they will surely fall victim to the same tactics in the future. My latest in @bopinion bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

The share of corporate loans to state-owned Chinese firms has increased in recent years compared to loans to private firms, even though profits at state-owned firms lag far behind. The financial system propping up inefficient firms may slow future growth. #PIIECharts
