1. Teenage Entrepreneurship & AI

When I was 17, I flew 4,236 km to San Francisco and turned down the most selective Ivy League program instead of college, I lived out of WeWork, hacked on AI models, while figuring out how to get an O1 visa as a teenager. Luckily, I met @DavidSHolz who was kind enough to give me guidance.

  • AI Model Development: I spent time developing AI models while living out of WeWork, which helped me gain valuable experience.

5. Digital Nomadism & Entrepreneurship

Everywhere in this town you see the same kind of character—Westerners who have been so ill-treated and badly worn by life that they’ve dropped the whole struggle and decided to camp out here in Bali indefinitely, where they can live in a gorgeous house for $200 a month, perhaps.

8. Linkspartei Criticism

The @linkspartei has been fishing for voters in Berlin among antisemites and Islamists and didn't even stop at criminal clan structures. Demanding less police and constitutional protection fits the picture. This party must not open the doors to the town hall for hate preachers.

  • Demanding Less Police: The party's demand for less police and constitutional protection is concerning, as it fits the picture of their tactics.

That’s called imperialism. I find it disgusting. Hope future American leaders will reverse this illegal, immoral Trump return to the 19th century. I want my country to be better than that.

Urban Planning is all about intention to make things better. The reason our urban landscape (image 1) looks so miserable is because the Master Plan only benefits the privileged few. But it becomes a powerful tool for development when good planning benefits everyone (image 2)
