See, this is why I chose the HN title.

As soon as a site adds rep, there come the accusations of rep whoring. I don't care about my SO rep, as long as it's not libellous or something. I don't need a job, I don't want a job. I want (in this specific case) to teach.

What if people don't know they have a problem?

If SO becomes a standard destination (and it appears to be from watching the devs around me), then what is not on SO / accessible to Google might as well not exist.

Re: the letting others answer. Let them edit my post instead, if they think there's a problem with it.
