The silent majority of experts (2012)
&gt; Yes, there are many people who blog and otherwise publicly discuss development methodologies and what they&#x27;re working on, but there are even more people who don&#x27;t. Blogging takes time, for example, and not everyone enjoys it. Other people are working on commercial products and can&#x27;t divulge the inner workings of their code.<p>There’s a subset of this silent majority who tried to contribute to discussion platforms but gave up when they saw prominent voices that had next to no idea what they were talking about being promoted, hailed, and so on. The loudest voice is rarely the most articulate, and for subject matter experts articulation, nuance, and other learned-through-experience things count for a lot, one would assume.
