Adding a readme to your Github profile
Since July 11th 2020, Github has a new feature that allows users to customise their profile significantly more than before by enabling them to write a readme for their whole profile.

High level overview
In computing there are certain concepts that, in my opinion, increasingly so, have relevance and applicability to how we operate our businesses in terms of architecture, but even more so in operational processes.
I believe that trend of increasing applicability of computing principles to business is due to the growing share of intangible value creation of total value (tangible + intangible). Our world has changed, is doing so still and will probably not stop any time soon. …
An excursion into the emic object of self.
And in the end, there shall be light.
It is so dark you feel unable to tell tales of features of the surroundings. The floor feels amorphous and the walls could be sole schemes. There is a drive somewhere deep in you nudging your foot forward further into the ambiguity of nothingness and your instincts restrain from objection.
