They’re built by digging into the root causes, not by rolling out features that only work “when possible.” Trust is earned, not PR’ed.

To everyone watching: safe platforms aren’t built on toggles or token gestures.

This is what happens when a company fixes optics instead of fixing the system. If Uber wanted to address the true human problem—rider + driver safety—they’d overhaul reporting workflows, run proactive safeguards, use real-time interventions, not bury the gaps in their UI.

Women drivers remain a fraction of the supply, so most rides will still default to status quo, leaving riders w/ the illusion of choice but not actual safety. Meanwhile, the feature doesn’t guarantee a match, + it simply “increases chances”—which avoids real accountability for when things go wrong.

You’d be better off - sans the old school TV approach and hit independent media.

Our leaders should be fighting for us, not making it easier for Trump to push billionaire donor agendas and end vital programs.

Voting with Republicans isn’t “bipartisanship”—it’s complicity in gutting Medicare, education, and support for working families.

Every corner of Seoul reminds you that human-centered design isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of living. From temples of innovation to street markets of soul.

Between research labs and product demos, I made sure to taste the science of joy: sweet pastries, spicy soups, and endless warmth from everyone I met. 💛

From sunrise over the Han River 🌅 to the city’s glass spires reaching for tomorrow — Seoul is where the future hums quietly in harmony with tradition.

🙏 Tried the fasting trick on my flight home this time and made it to an 8PM bedtime. Third trip this year and still chasing that elusive circadian rhythm hack 😴✈️
