BerkubernetusFolks are treating the recent tech layoffs as something spontaneous. They were not. Apparently the current layoffs were orchestrated by hedge funds.
This hedge fund demanded that the big tech companies lay people off because they were being paid too much. Let that one sink in: a hedge fund manager saying that you're being paid too much.
Note that TCI is demanding that Google lay off more people.
"The universe is only as large as our perception of it. When we cultivate our awareness, we are expanding the universe.
This expands the scope, not just of the material at our disposal to create from, but of the life we get to live."

Outstanding book
SEO causes writing that is quite frankly, tiring. The constant flow of click bait titles. The repeated use of the keyword where it may not be needed. Substituting power words for what might be the better word.
Not only that but the search engines can use SEO rewards and punishments to steer writing in any direction they choose.
Did Mozart let Emporer Joseph II decide the proper number of notes? I think not.
Am I crazy?
After writing a blog post this afternoon, I ran it through Grammarly, which I am evaluating.
Its conclusions:
Word length 5 - above average
Sentence length 10.1 - above average
Readability 56
Then this:
Your text is likely to be understood by a reader who has a 9th-grade education (age 15). Aim for a score of 60-70 to ensure your text is readable by 80% of English speakers.
(Where a higher score is easier to read)
Between this and SEO suggestions I get a bit dispirited!
It would be nice to be able to browse the public feed of a specific instance other than the one you are logged into,
and be able to follow people on the instance you are browsing.
Any way to do this?
I welcome the first day of winter. My favorite season of the year. This from Northern Vermont where I lived until a few years ago. Loved roaming the Green Mountain's on those cold, snowy days.
ReadingFaithfully.org☸📗Do you know the Pali name of a sutta but don't know the citation? Try using the Pali Sutta Name lookup tool:
https://name.readingfaithfully.org/
It has a fuzzy mode that ignores all diacritics, double letters and aspirated consonants—the common things we misspell.
Now when you hover over a sutta you get an icon to copy a markdown version of the link.
