Responding to the original comment with 'get lost' and 'we don't want you either' is not constructive in my opinion.
I remember being surprised at first because I thought it would feel like a wall of text. But it was such a good read and I felt I gained so much.

I am sold thanks to the author's authenticity, but if I had not seen this, I wouldn't know what I'm looking at. So I think it would be very helpful if there were more info on the landing page.
If you didn't know about it already, I think that you could use it to tweak the Nuenki landing page, and you'll possibly have some aha moment that'll help in marketing down the line.
This is one of the reasons I'm dissatisfied with myself. My greatest successes have been when I applied full attention to details out of frustration, which have been rare. I genuinely believe that my life would drastically improve if I'd stop rushing from one thing to another.
2. I have written technical blogs and it is very rewarding when you see your article ranking at the top of Google, and people sharing it because it is genuinely useful.
I may have some advice here.
If you've never had a blog, you'll be surprised how easily you can rank in search engines and get visitors. Technical blogs that haven't been tainted by monetization aren't as many as you'd think. You probably see many of them here on HN, but in Google most websites fight to stay on top for major keywords to make money.
Furthermore, many experts don't write. You'll be amazed when you start seeing impressions in Google Search Console (their dashboard for search activity).
I highly recommend: - Setup the site quick, in an imperfect state - Post a few articles in an imperfect state - Install Google Search Console
Then follow the data in Search Console - you'll see which keywords and pages are getting traction. From there, keep posting what you think would be helpful for people like you.
I also want to improve my prioritization skills to better judge which challenging tasks truly deserve my time and mental energy, and which ones don't.
Result for "color palette of 8 colors for a china-themed site. Include opposing complementary colors."
- Romania's voting system is in 2 rounds, and he won the first. The second is in ~2 days.
- Most people never heard of him up until 2 weeks before the first round, when an aggressive Tiktok campaign started. Polymarket.com didn't include him in their system. Many were taken by surprise.
- Many videos promoting him on Tiktok weren't marked as being propaganda, and thus allowed to go viral.
- He claims 0 campaign spending and that it's thanks to volunteers.
- Many who voted for him aren't into politics, and liked the way he presented himself.
- His content is a mix of populist, nationalist, anti-establishment, and mostly contain patriotic and emotional narratives to connect to viewers.
- Larger cities voted for the pro-western candidate
- He's made some controversial statements, such as the moon landing being fake, covid denying (am not sure to what extent), 5G conspiracy, denying climate change (those being just a few)
Everyone's talking about him. I'm curious how it will turn out and to see how the quote "there's no such thing as bad publicity" fares in this case.
2. It clicked some time after reading "Never split the difference" by Chris Voss. A negotiation book.
At first I understood that I'm listening to understand what my counterpart really wants, that is not saying directly.
An example (I won't remember this correctly and am oversimplifying) was with a Filipino terrorist who was justifying his actions, and the taking of hostages, due to decades of USA injustices to his country. He was asking for a massive amount of money. Turns out he let the hostages go when the negotiator acknowledged what the terrorist was upset about - something like "I understand that you're upset because the USA did X, and they did Y, and Z, etc"
So by that the book made it's point that I should actually listen to what people are saying, because I myself don't understand immediately what I want while I'm talking, so as to tell someone "I want X".
Another example the drove that point home - The author and his son were preparing for something and he asked for a notebook. But the son was giving him a folder, because in his head a notebook is like a folder. And it goes something like:
Chris Voss: Give me the notebook about the thing.
Son: Gives the folder.
Chris Voss (frustrated): Not the folder, the notebook!
Son: Notebook?
Chris Voss: 3 ring binder.

What drove the point home was his experience starting up at the suicide hotline.
He learned to listen in a way to help the other person untangle their minds.
So basically rubber duck debugging. And that's what I try to do now. I always think like I'm assisting people untangle their thoughts and what they want to say. This helps me also ask questions and not assume anything. And I think I get some dopamine when I ask a good question and they elaborate, because my goal is to learn more about what the other person is talking about, which makes me listen more.
Making Peace with Personal Branding: https://www.fast.ai/posts/2017-12-18-personal-brand.html
Your blog would detail some of your work experiences you wish to write about, such as tutorials, case studies, etc. I realize it's likely a longer game than classic networking.
And this only because it seems that the CEO noticed I can spin up prototypes to validate ideas before passing them to the actual devs.
I've worked with him for a total of 3 years however, and during that time, most of the time I felt like I was tinkering without making a real difference.
The only time that a bigger project was implemented that I had the lead on felt like a fluke and it was after probably 6 months of working on it.
