Put your name on your work and find like-minded people to share credit with. It is now on you to build not your brand, but the demonstration that you know what's going on.
It is going to be very hard to get a job by printing a list of skills at the top of your resume and hoping to get noticed. It already was and now it's worse than ever.
Be a person on the internet and by that I mean do not hide your person-hood. Your curiosity, your learning, your willingness to consider angles. Professional polish is something the clankers do better than us, because they are trained on all of us doing it.
If not putting your name on your learning, put a stable pseudonym out there. Be known by the work you do and even the mistakes you make and reconsider. Showing that your knowledge has _depth_ is now one of the most important things. We can all vibe up to a basic understanding. It's the people who can see where they went wrong, and course-correct that really are going to carry the day.
You no longer get to be perfect and only show what's finished and polished. And you're gonna have to show your work.

I wish social media sites would automatically run reverse image searches on photographs we post and then discreetly display how many versions already exist on the internet. Would save everyone the hassle of figuring out whether an amazing pic was actually taken by the person peddling it is their own. #photography #photos

Free speech is the power to criticize your government without fear of prosecution. It is a basic human right.
It is not about getting away with hurting your neighbor who never caused you any harm. Dignity is a human right.
That is also what "love your neighbor" is about.
It's just a sensible thing to do.
Do not tolerate hate speech.
There is no (need for a) "freedom to hate".
Be kind to one another. 🧡

Back in the early days of the internet, "troll" just meant someone who would make a statement, or ask a question, purely to waste the time of the people responding earnestly. The general advice was to recognise this, and not respond. (Only later did "troll" come to mean active harassment.)
The political press is nowhere near this realisation, possibly because its not their own time they're wasting.

I've been wondering: will future historians have more public records to go through, or less? It's fascinating to read through letters and telegraphs of Albert Einstein, yet I wonder whether our digitized world will leave the same trace.

At Dropbox, we've been using BBRv1 since 2017 and are accustomed to its pros and cons.
