Robert Kiyosaki once said that every day is filled with defining moments. And that’s absolutely true.

Doesn't make too many decisions. And, above all, doesn't make anyone above them look uncomfortable. Ideally, someone who...
1959 Japan started building a high-speed railway between Tokyo and Osaka. 515 kilometres. A completely new railway system. New tracks. New trains. New technology. By October 1964, passengers were travelling at over 200 km/h. Five and a half years. No AI, folks. No digital twins. And of course, no PowerPoint presentations explaining why delivery was becoming increasingly complicated. Just a country with a clear objective. And, of course, people determined to achieve it instead of jumping onto...
Yesterday, I received a bothering message from DHL indicating that my Canadian election package was in its way… So, today… Canada. 1907 Canada was building one of the most ambitious bridges in the world. The Quebec Bridge. A spectacular structure across the St. Lawrence River. Almost 550 metres between its main supports. A masterpiece of engineering. At least… as usual… on paper.
