How did you come to Ashtanga

This is Ashtanga Yoga Tech Support. Real questions from the yoga community, answered. The Question I'm keeping this question intentionally open ended. I'm curious if yoga has helped you in your relationships, including the physical benefits but also the mindset of love/lust/romance etc. Has it had any impact on your libido (increased/decreased), stamina, satisfaction, cravings, connection with your partner, calming the mind of outside temptations etc.

Choose funeral options with transparency and local care—prioritize honest data, ecosystem impact, and rituals that serve grief over glossy promises.

We love a redemptive ending. The body returns to soil, a tree grows from the grave, death becomes compost. Green funerals promise exactly this: natural burials, human composting, alkaline hydrolysis, even those biodegradable pods that turn you into a sapling. It’s beautiful. It’s also complicated. Hannah Gould and Georgina Robinson wrote something sharp about this in Aeon. They’re not against ecological burial—they’re against the way it gets sold. The marketing is sleek. The data is often thin. Some of these technologies are still aspirational, others oversimplify genuine trade-offs.

Automated systems don’t remove human bias—they move it, and they hide it from view

Automated systems don’t remove human bias they move it, and they hide it from view. I grew up in small-town America. The kind of place where you knew the person behind the counter at the hardware store and bought your milk from someone whose name you could actually remember. It wasn’t romantic — it was just how commerce worked. You exchanged money for goods, and nobody was quietly adjusting your price based on what phone you carried or how long you lingered in the dairy aisle. That world is vanishing.

Algorithmic sorting doesn’t just reflect class—it actively produces new forms of social stratification

Jenna Burrell and Marion Fourcade describe an emerging split between what they call the “coding elite” — those who build and control algorithmic systems — and the “cybertariat” — those who are subject to them. This isn’t just a digital divide in the old sense of who has internet access. It’s a divide in who gets to be a subject versus an object in algorithmic systems. The coding elite set the parameters. Everyone else is a data point.
