I’m still routinely intimated by some people in tech. Everything I publish gets negative comments to some degree. People telling me I’m dumbing stuff down too much, or I’m wrong about stuff and shouldn’t be writing about it. Putting yourself out there eventually guarantees this will happen to you.

Since we're among close friends, a confession: when I was in college, I experienced some hateful engineers in the Linux community, and it kept me away from open source in my prime programming years. Sometimes the difference between an annoyance and a valued contributor is kindness and mentorship.

I am 17 years in tech and your content is brilliant and enlightening. I hope to read way more 'dumb' content from you, so I finally will get it. Btw, I would probably kill to just be able to make half as great visualizations as you do. Let the haters hate.
