Nobody cares about your blog
The blog lists pros and cons. I disagree with all cons.<p>> There are hundreds of blogs out there, what makes you think yours is different?<p>Because it's mine. My friends care.
Recruiters and hiring managers have cared (in a good way).<p>> You’re just probably repeating things you’ve read in another place.<p>Maybe. But some are hidden in a locked library basement behind a door labelled "beware of the leopard". The information is not useful there.<p>Also I sometimes write the documentation I wish existed before I learned. Maybe it was written, but not in the way I found useful. If ever someone who thinks like me reads it, it'll save them more time than I took to write it. And people have thanked me, so I guess they exist.<p>> You’re not an expert in your field, otherwise you wouldn’t be publishing in a blog, but writing papers and giving interviews.<p>So there is no need for teachers and textbook authors, because they don't advance state of the art?<p>And actually, when I've asked questions, I've had people refer me back to my own blog, as if it's a reference. (I'd not forgotten, I was asking about the next step)<p>> You are only showing the world how stupid you are.<p>I do that every day. The only way to become (and therefore look) smart is to look stupid. :-)<p>> If someone, at some point, cares about your blog will be only to criticize it.<p>No. The only real criticism I get for my blog is from Bitcoin idiots telling me I'm stupid, but they never "have the time" to explain what exactly I'm not getting. Sure, buddy.<p>> Your work is trash, and exposing it will make people notice you’re trash as well<p>I'd rather leave a mark of who I actually am, than some fake Instagram persona lie of who I am.
