multifarious
this is my blog. I use it to write about things that interest me, and hopefully help people who stumble across it with similar interests.
Most of my articles relate to the use of translation technology... and typically technology I use in my daily work.
social media
i'm pretty fed up with social media. I deleted my facebook, instagram and linkedin accounts. I don't think they really add any value to my life at all, only eating up time I'll never get back with endless amounts of crap.
I think the idea is good, but the implementation and how it's influencing our society today is dreadful. So I've retained a twitter account and my blog. Twitter probably isn't much better but I can filter it more easily and it's a useful platform to engage when I feel like it.
Covid
nothing in particular to write about here, other than to encourage you to read the Great Barrington Declaration and add your support.
I'd also encourage you to subscribe to the Brownstone Institute. It's a science based nonprofit organisation, not antivaxx or anything like that. But reasoned discussion that we should be paying attention to and we should be driving our governments to do the same.
