Why write content no one reads?
It's 2021. Build a cathedral of a website for a single tweet, it will say a lot more about you.
Although I wish, obviously, we all read more.

I wrote for the void for a long time. At the time, some folks on my immediate team found it useful. Now, a few years later, I'm still referencing those posts.
The important hard work was actually writing and polishing the idea until it was good enough to publish.
Also, in general, it’s not really about the number of people that read it. If it’s important enough to spend time writing about it, then if even just 1 person reads the post that’s good enough.
Later I discovered others have expressed similar sentiments long before I was even born, e.g. "writing is thinking". Ah well, always nice to feel validated when you independently arrived at essentially the same conclusion as other people who are probably smarter than you :-)
