Today I would like to tie together a few loose ends again, picking up one from last week, another from maybe a few months ago and perhaps a couple more along the way. Last week, I described an odd sort of dichotomy that can arise if someone views words separately from the persons who are… Continue reading Self, Words, The Word & Language Itself

People and Their Word(s)
A couple of days ago I made an observation that I am quite surprized to have realized so late in my life (for some reason, I expect this realization ought to have come perhaps during my adolescence or maybe early adult life). There are aspects of this notion that have been clear enough to me… Continue reading People and Their Word(s)
Localization (or Localisation?) and Context: Das Gegenüber
Localization is a commonly used term to refer to translating content into other languages — but it’s almost never as simple as that. One of my German friends suggested I should write something for a German-speaking audience (alluding to some of my English language sites, such as this one or my indigena project). I felt… Continue reading Localization (or Localisation?) and Context: Das Gegenüber
It’s Time to Roll up Our Sleeves
As we gradually approach the season of Greensleeves, we worry more and more about our Greenbacks. ja ja ja jetzt wird wieder in die Hände gespuckt, wir steigern das Bruttosozialprodukt Geier Sturzflug, “Bruttosozialprodukt” But before I get all “real world” on you, let me quickly mention something that apparently actually happened IRL — it seems… Continue reading It’s Time to Roll up Our Sleeves
Some Market Price is Probably More or Less Accurate at Some Moment in Some Marketplace (& Socio BIZ Rule #2)
Over the past few weeks, I have asked my readers to come along on rather intellectual exercises. Now I feel the time is right to begin turning our fitness journey towards some practical, “real life” results — basically applications and insights into the way the world actually works (according to my theories 😉 ). Note… Continue reading Some Market Price is Probably More or Less Accurate at Some Moment in Some Marketplace (& Socio BIZ Rule #2)
With or Without Advertising
In the previous two installments, we investigated worlds with and without advertising. Now let’s begin trying to discover which world we prefer to (or choose to) engage in. Essentially, this boils down to choosing whether we want to receive one message at a time, or whether we would prefer to receive two messages at the… Continue reading With or Without Advertising
Publishing Without Walls
Picking up the pieces from our previous installment (“A Deep Dive Behind the Editorial Wall“), let’s consider what publishing looks like without walls. My hunch is that there are a lot of people who are completely unfamiliar with the idea that it is possible to publish something without some kind of advertising — and here,… Continue reading Publishing Without Walls
A Deep Dive Behind the Editorial Wall
At the moment my brain is brimming with a bunch of interconnected ideas … and this one needs to be addressed first of all. Many years ago, when I first published my controversial ideas (way before I revised the nomenclature in “Hope & Change: Flipping the F-word & Removing the Old-Fashioned R-word” [ https://remediary.com/2020/11/06/hope-change-flipping-the-f-word-removing-the-old-fashioned-r-word ],… Continue reading A Deep Dive Behind the Editorial Wall
A Tale of Two Segments
Once upon a time, where you lived had a huge impact on your life. Now, not so much. Today, what you think about, what you spend your time with, what occupies your mind and your mental energy matters a lot more. In this chapter, I aim to do a little thought experiment. I am going… Continue reading A Tale of Two Segments
Canonical Rules and Other Phenomena
The other day, one of my online colleagues wrote a post with some tips about “How To Refocus When You Can’t Achieve Your Dreams” [ https://new-lune.com/2022/07/21/how-to-refocus-when-you-cant-achieve-your-dreams ]. Even though I quickly replied with a comment, mine was not the first — she seems to have struck a nerve. I quite often refer to literacy —… Continue reading Canonical Rules and Other Phenomena
