Maybe instead of trashing other people's work you could just link to yours instead.


This is the real world: just because you do work doesn't mean you were working on the right thing, the right way, at the right time, for the right people, etc.

Maybe pretending everything is awesome feels good now, but it won't feel good when you're in your 40s with nothing lasting to show for 20 years of professional development work.

I won't be linking to my work for 2 reasons:

1. I say unpopular things with this account and value my anonymity. 2. It's completely irrelevant. Posting my work would neither prove that I'm justified in what I said nor disprove what you say.

But hey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSjLiQxEZlM


It's easy to say unpopular things with an anonymous account, but it kind of takes the weight out of them IMO. Own your opinions, I say.


It's easy to speak with your real name when don't think for yourself and instead only follow popular opinions, but that makes your opinions kind of worthless IMO. The truth is not always what's popular, I say.
