Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series: Oligarchy and the Future Development of Civilisation and Humanity
Who really decides what the future looks like? It’s easy to think progress just happens — that technology improves, cities expand, and industries evolve on their own. But if you look closer, you’ll see patterns. Major breakthroughs tend to follow major investment. Large-scale shifts tend to follow decisive leadership.

Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series: Oligarchy and the Future Development of Civilisation and Humanity
Civilisation does not move forward by accident. It moves where capital, vision, and ambition intersect. Throughout history, a relatively small number of individuals have held the resources capable of accelerating entire eras. Today, that concentration is more visible than ever.

AI as a Reflective Surface
Much of the confusion surrounding artificial intelligence comes from treating it as an agent rather than a surface. When people speak about AI “doing the thinking,” “creating the ideas,” or “speaking for someone,” they are often projecting agency onto a system that does not possess intention, belief, or understanding. This projection obscures what is actually happening in many real-world uses. In those cases, AI is not acting as a source of meaning, but as a surface that reflects, redirects, and reshapes what is already present.

The reason behind the early 2020s methane increase
Although methane levels have been rising for some time, the early 2020s were particularly noteworthy. According to a recent study, levels surged abnormally quickly for a quite annoying reason.

The Algorithm That Couldn’t Grieve. AI-Generated.
I. The Dashboard at 3:17 A.M. At 3:17 a.m., the dashboard glowed like a small, contained sun in my apartment. Blue bars climbed and fell with obedient grace. Numbers refreshed themselves, indifferent to the hour, to my bare feet on cold tile, to the silence that had settled after the city exhaled. Somewhere inside those figures was a promise: clarity without cost. If I stared long enough, the mess of living would resolve into something legible.
