IMHO experts who want to help people differ from self-proclaimed gurus who want to enlighten people. David Robinson ( data scientist not a basketball player) is the example of the first type. Take a look at his blog. He does not make any pretentious title or something, yet his articles are truly enlightening and influence millions of people!
- shados 9y agoIt's no real secret that the author is a sucker for attention. I've always kind of felt that it was the first goal, and that he happened to help people was kind of a nice side effect. From spamming his links everywhere he can, to begging for upvotes on Twitter, going by posting stuff about how he got famous and constant bragging, it's not new.
- AWebOfBrown 9y agoThis is utterly ridiculous. Mark is often found on, for example, the react subreddit helping out folk with redux problems, and it's not at all an efficient or practical way to gain a following. If he were focused on fame and glory, he'd do much better simply writing Medium articles to a large audience and spamming social media links. These kind of comments are disappointing to read, especially when directed at someone sacrificing an awful lot of time helping others.
