Ask HN: To Blog or Not?
4 by blogornot | 5 comments on Hacker News.
I have a personal site. I blogged in the past and I used to use my site as a "portfolio" of sorts showcasing my projects, writing, etc. Several months ago I removed all blog posts and projects from my personal site. As it stands right now, my personal site is simply a "whois" for myself. Basically, a business card. I'm torn. On the one hand companies scrape up data from personal projects and blog posts for their LLMs. People dig up things you said in the past and cancel you according to whatever is trending that day. Why bother writing anymore? Why publish projects? What are your thoughts?
