Tonnes of people have written about learning in public. Here are my thoughts on it.

Pros:

  • You are forced to organize your thoughts and write properly - it's a good exercise to get better at writing
  • Demonstration of ? domain expertise to people who you might want to impress in the future

Cons:

  • If nobody reads what you write, you are sad
  • If someone is reading what you write, they now know how little you know and how misinformed you are
  • When you stop maintaining your digital garden, it becomes extra embarrassing
