This entry represents something like my stream of consciousness for Friday, 14 November, 2025. This is basically like a journal entry that I work on throughout the day and then don’t go back to correct errors. I gotta admit that I didn’t wake up in a good mood today. I don’t like to complain, butContinue reading “JW Consciousness Stream – 14 November 2025”

Expand All LinkedIn Comments
Sometimes I want to see all of the comments in a LinkedIn thread, for example to paste it into ChatGPT (or print or save it as a PDF and upload that) for analysis. Update 28.Nov.2025: See also: To do this, first create a bookmarklet that will expand all the “More…” links for long comments. IContinue reading “Expand All LinkedIn Comments”
Human Resources
This is another piece that I’ll never finish. The first draft was from my early cubicle days in the late 1990s. When I first moved to silicon valley, someone there told me that the ethos was “buy a car you don’t need with money you don’t have to impress people you don’t know.” In theContinue reading “Human Resources”

Apologies [and Forgiveness]
This article provides a little perspective on apologies. My good friend Marta, who often functions something like a muse, apologized to me yesterday for something they had written. Sometimes her perspectives offer insight, and I value that. Because she does not understand all of my context, sometimes her ideas seem completely unfounded and invalid. IContinue reading “Apologies [and Forgiveness]”
My Writing Tools and Process
I’ve finally started trying to write a book about my life, perspectives, disjointed philosophies, and guidance for my children, a large amount of which provides my suggestions for avoiding dangers with modern technology. This article describes my tools and general process. I still really prefer older versions of Microsoft Word as a writing environment, butContinue reading “My Writing Tools and Process”
How to Enter Formatted Content (Markdown) into WordPress/LinkedIn
I think I finally figured out how to enter formatted content into WordPress (or LinkedIn Articles, which apparently use the WordPress editor) as markdown. I don’t write articles on LinkedIn anymore, so I didn’t really try it there. The WordPress editor can be OK for maintaining formatted content, but really sucks for writers entering contentContinue reading “How to Enter Formatted Content (Markdown) into WordPress/LinkedIn”
