AI Is Already Replacing Tech Jobs
It is no longer a futuristic headline. Artificial intelligence is not only transforming how we work but is now actively replacing certain roles in the tech industry.

The Art of Illusion: When Fire Meets Magic in the Palm of a Hand
In the mesmerizing image above, a delicate balance of danger and wonder is captured. A hand extends outward, fingers curled as though summoning a force unseen, while four aces hover mid-air—engulfed in flames and trailing smoke as if plucked from a magician’s wildest dream. This photograph doesn’t just depict a moment; it evokes an entire narrative, one that dances between illusion, control, chaos, and the elemental essence of fire. It stands at the intersection of art, magic, and metaphor.

Revolution in His Eyes: The Timeless Symbolism of a Rebel’s Roar
Introduction In the heart of any revolution lies not just the chaos of conflict, but the fire of human willpower. Captured in the image above is a powerful moment that encapsulates that spirit: a man mid-battle cry, gun in hand, passion etched into every line of his face. His clothes are rugged, his gear practical, and his stance unmistakably defiant. This is not merely a photo—it is a visual symphony of rebellion, courage, and ideology. Whether staged or real, symbolic or literal, this single frame serves as a tribute to the human drive to resist oppression.

“I Lived Like It Was 2050 for a Week. Here’s What Surprised Me Most.”
Day 1: The Setup When I first agreed to participate in an experimental project that let me “live” like it was the year 2050 for one week, I thought it would be all sleek gadgets, robots, and holograms. I was wrong. It was so much more—and in some cases, unsettlingly less.

The Sacred Scent: The Timeless Mystery and Majesty of Oudh (Agarwood)
What is Oudh? “عود کیا ہے؟” — What is Oudh? Oudh, also known as Agarwood, is no ordinary wood. It is a dark, resinous heartwood that forms inside Aquilaria trees when they become infected with a specific type of mold. But the story of Oudh is far more than just a biological reaction. It's a sacred tree, a religious symbol, a medicine, and a luxury fragrance—deeply rooted in the spiritual, historical, and economic fabric of multiple civilizations.

Why This Billionaire Doesn’t Own a Single Stock or Bond
At 5 a.m. on an ordinary weekday morning, while most people are still in bed, homebuilding mogul Pat Neal is already deep in thought. As the warm water hits his shoulders in the shower, he's not thinking about yoga, breakfast, or even the weather—he’s thinking about the 10-Year Treasury Bill. Not because he invests in it, but because it tells him something about his real passion: housing.

Now, you can message offline “Bitchat”:
In a digital age where connectivity is often considered a lifeline, the recent unveiling of Bitchat by tech entrepreneur Jack Dorsey feels nothing short of revolutionary. Bitchat is a peer-to-peer messaging app that does not require Wi-Fi, internet, or cellular service. Instead, it operates solely via Bluetooth, creating a mesh network among nearby devices. The idea is simple, yet transformative: to enable secure, private, and censorship-resistant communication—even during complete internet blackouts.

The One Platform That Brings Me the Most Vocal Traffic (It’s Not Twitter!)
I thought I knew where my audience was—until a forgotten app outperformed all the big names. If you had asked me last year which platform would send the most readers to my Vocal stories, I would've said Twitter. Or maybe Facebook. At a stretch, Medium.
