Stumble upon in April 2025

While doomscrolling on LinkedIn the other day, a comment linking to an article/essay about what to expect from the newly inaugurated U.S. president and his administration caught my eye.

The essay, What Should the World Expect from Trump 2.0?, was written by Lene Rachel Andersen.

I try not to react in the heat of the moment to avoid inadvertently “endorsing” something I might not stand by after a closer look. So, I simply saved the link for later reading.

Today, I finally had time to read it and found a well-written and thoughtful essay.

Unfortunately, I can’t find the original LinkedIn comment anymore, but I’m sharing the article here on my blog. It deserves a response. 👍

I’ve saved it as a PDF, just in case it disappears from the web (as things sometimes do).

On a less serious note, I also had the pleasure to read Benjamin Schwerdtner thoughts about why Clojure is such a cool language:

I think he captures it better than I ever could:

Language is a tool of thought.
