You Can't Buy FigJam Without Buying Figma
Miro will sell a whiteboard to anyone for a few dollars and never mention the rest of its catalog. FigJam refuses to sell you anything unless you also buy a Figma seat. That one difference explains two very different companies.

A Go2 Newsroom perspective on widening access to professional remote work regardless of geography.

It draws on Go2's own hiring philosophy and company background, and is clearly presented as Go2's own point of view.
Po-Shen Loh on Education, Opportunity, and Humanity After AI
Mathematician Po-Shen Loh, the longtime U.S. International Math Olympiad coach, argues that AI is about to erase the promise of a 'stable life' and that the way humanity thrives afterward is by building high-trust networks of curious, caring people. Drawing on visits to a high-poverty fourth-grade classroom in rural South Carolina and to Africa, he describes vast untapped pools of authentic talent, a coaching pipeline where students mentor younger students across borders, and a new 'economic flow system' powered by trust and remote work. He warns about the risks of an interconnected, AI-written, robot-run world, and reframes education around intention, curiosity, and the ability to solve non-standard problems. A brief closing segment features a Stanford instructor describing the rise of the 'AI-native engineer.'
