Our gates are open, and we should adhere to that principle, but similar to free speech, we should make clear reasonable conduct. In other words, do not think your sharing is acceptable without some merit. A good example of this was a recent 15 year old that wrote a blog post about lessons in being a developer that really should only have been written by someone with a minimum of five years of professional experience (and I’m being lenient, probably should be 7-8). By principle we encourage the open gate, but If the growing trend is you are fresh out of college or a bootcamp graduate and write up a whole article on microservices and why or why not a business should use them, then our implicit guidelines are too ignorable. The community should want sharing, but with integrity. We don’t want people sharing because of the concocted identity of a developer who must surely also write authoritative/instructor blog posts. This should be discouraged implicitly, and given the climate of lack of integrity based sharing (eg I worked 5 years, let me show you how to set up a scalable business model), then we must be more explicit until those behaviors change. Open gate regardless.
