I write mostly for myself, but I've posted my blog and writing here and on reddit more often recently. It has helped me improve and build a better separation of worth/work, much like I view code review as a way to improve and learn. That being said, the storm talking does get old very quickly. It's hard enough to write and edit! Usually if it's off-putting or argumentative, I don't worry about responding. For instance, from a recent comment on a blog post about a spray bottle: "It works because it's a spray bottle. If it wasn't, it couldn't be called a spray bottle, and my assumption is someone would have changed the design until they got it working, and then that design would be called a spray bottle." I always welcome conversation, but sometimes it's clear that a conversation isn't the goal!
