"They're very good at running out the clock on you."

The founders of Predictim want to be clear with me: Their product—an algorithm that scans the online footprint of a prospective babysitter to determine their “risk” levels for parents—is not racist. It is not biased.

Aral is a designer, coder, and human rights activist. He is the founder and lead designer of Ind.ie, a tiny social enterprise that uses Ethical Design to create everyday things that respect human rights, effort, and experience. “Our lives are a string of experiences.

I say “growth hacking,” and you say, “where can I learn more?” I say “crowdfunding,” and you say “fascinating.” I say “business ethics,” and you may say … "b.

It's an unexpected side effect of globalization: problems that once would have stayed local—say, a bank lending out too much money—now have consequences worldwide. But still, countries operate independently, as if alone on the planet. Policy advisor Simon Anholt has dreamed up an unusual scale to get governments thinking outwardly: The Good Country Index. In a riveting and funny talk, he answers the question, "Which country does the most good?" The answer may surprise you (especially if you live in the US or China).

Där upplevelsen får vara i fokus och inte bara kraven och prestationen. För att uppleva frihet krävs tillit. Att lita på att stunden bär mig oavsett. Tillit ger mig modet att släppa taget.
