"A lot of ethical, if you will, or moral questions are being asked already. Most American companies promote American values and protect democracy, and things like freedom of speech. But for example in countries like Malaysia Facebook had a major problem with freedom of speech, because the First Amendment does not apply there."

"At this stage, the conventional war is what we see. Conventional media as well. But what we have to handle now are the consequences of this situation. So as we know, the economy is at stake, but also the social cohesion in Europe. And it is true that it's a communication war, it's an opinion war."

"...a lot of our systems are fundamentally based on the threat of violence. I'm not saying that people will not do horrible things, but now we have a system that is built on the idea of violence. Money, taxes, regulations, inflation, all of these things are imposed on you.
There's no contract, you have no saying in it, you cannot opt out. So if you disagree, there's always the threat of being thrown in jail ...

"Fake news and disinformation pose a threat to democracy. They pose a threat to the functioning of democratic institutions, which is something we've seen already. But more more serious than that, they attack the very essence of democracy. It is a very paradoxical thing, if I may put it that way."

"Most people don't beat the market. But that's exactly what you make with these individual bets. So if you want to buy individual stocks, I would consider that a medium risk.
How much you put in high risk is a personal choice, you can put zero in high risk and that's great or you can add 50% in high risk. And that also ends up being a very personal perspective.
Yeah, crypto's definitely high risk.&q...

"...most importantly, enable the curation when we are talking specifically about this area of NFTs. They are enabling the best out of people if they want to curate and to really help the fans achieve their own interest and purposes. So this could be a little bit of a paradox if we're talking about blockchain, about decentralisation and then here I come to say that this is how it should be done. I think that this could be ...

"So the point is that we have for the first time in the history of the humanity a system of storing and transferring value that cannot be controlled by anyone and that is very transparent, very easy to use, very easy to understand once you get it and that it's free. Basically the technology is free because if you look a little bit back, the first implementation of of blockchain was Bitcoin."

    Ruthie's Table 4

    For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
