  • They are a net gain to the site owner IMO. Years ago you could make a case for cutting into ad revenue, but in this day and age it’s hard enough to be discoverable to generate any in the first place. Sites with high SEO are swollen with ads and fluff and useless. Nowadays I’m just glad to see something I wrote about or compiled spur healthy interactions and on page 1 of search engines.

    That includes making third party dissemination easier. Perhaps I come away knowing and remembering more because of a bot’s concision. Maybe that makes me more likely to share your unique idea with others IRL. I dunno


  • This is a nice idea. It’s not splicing different words together but paying tribute to conceptual meaning. Simplifies syllables. Can be represented symbolically (e.g. ℵ₀). And it makes me think of the movie pi (aleph nought).

    I’m not a Hebrew speaker, so it’s easy for me to read “alpha” when skimming “aleph”. I wonder if others do this. Then again, read any modern tech headline and pretend you’re someone in the 70’s and you’d be struggling to understand what the hell even half the words are trying to convey.
