What do the illusion of sentient AI and a seatless airline design have in common? More than you might think. Last week, many web users reignited their obsession with Skyrider 2.0, a standing-room-only airline seat developed by the Italian firm Aviointeriors, which first became popular in 2018.

Equal parts irony, memes, and morbid curiosity.

Tucked in the heart of Peninsular Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur is not quite the highlands, not quite the coast, and not quite the jungle. But the best part is that the capital is within easy reach of all three. In a couple of hours or less, you can find yourself navigating tea plantations, cruising past centuries-old Dutch ruins, spotting glowing fireflies by moonlight, or feasting on seafood by the Straits of Malacca.

A sense of accomplishment takes over me as I complete an hour of snorkelling, interspersed with deep dives to see some baby sharks from close by, with the marine team at a luxury resort in the Maldives.
