“ Blogging is free, it doesn’t matter if anyone reads it; what matters is the humility that comes from writing it, what matters is the Metacognition of thinking about what you are going to thinking about what you are going to say. How do you explain yourself to the few employees, your cat or the few employees, your cat or whoever is going to look at it? How do you force yourself to describe in three paragraphs why you did something?”
