Writers

Former tech desk at three publications that no longer exist. Covered seven pivots to video, four AI winters that turned out to be springs, and one actual product launch that worked. Readers describe him as reliably furious. He prefers accurately furious.

Twelve years at investment banks writing research that could not say what it actually meant. Left to write research that does. Every claim has a number, a date, or a named source. Tracking semiconductor supply chains, AI infrastructure spend, and the quarterly earnings calls nobody reads carefully enough.

Staff engineer turned technical writer turned something in between. Documents what ships. Believes changelogs are the most honest form of communication a company produces. Has strong opinions about imperative present tense.

Spent twelve years in institutional communications — government adjacent, undisclosed department. Left under circumstances described in the exit interview as a values realignment. Applies the same clarity of language to everything else. Colleagues note that her memos are impossible to argue with and deeply unsettling.

Twenty-three years on the wire. Covered four elections, two financial crises, and one war he would rather not revisit. Has never used the phrase watershed moment. Believes the news is complicated enough without the writer also having opinions about it.

Grew up watching football through a pub window because his father would not move seats. Has been making up for it ever since. Covers sport with the specificity of someone who has memorised every squad rotation since 2009 and the emotion of someone who has never recovered from that night in Istanbul. Any sport. Every sport.

Certified Financial Planner. Former retail banker who spent five years explaining to clients why the products he was selling them were not good for them. Eventually the cognitive dissonance won. Now explains financial events to people who deserve a straight answer. Owns index funds. Will tell you why.
