@Riedl I think you mean "getting caught"

@mimsical One neat thing I enjoy watching over and over again:
1. Noted Expert (NE) in field who happens to be a great communicator gets globally recognized when some world event yanks their field into sudden relevance.
2. NE amasses followers and a platform.
3. World moves on from catalyzing event.
4. NE starts Thinkfluencing™ in fields slightly adjacent to their own, still mostly an expert, and the followers follow them on this journey.
5. Thinkfluencing™ expands farther afield. They're sharp, compelling, charismatic, so it basically works great. NE gets invited to NPR and stuff.
6. NE starts writing about your favorite pet subject. Obviously they're 107% wrong about everything, so you shout about it into the void. NE hasn't touched on your friend's subjects, though, so it doesn't affect their overall reputation among your peers.
7. ... (left as an exercise for the reader)
8. That quote from Nolan's Batman: "You either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain." -

@chargrille It's complicated. NEH's remote work policy is under draft and I can't share details, but it was important that we get this ad out before the policy gets finalized.
I can tell you that most members of the office in which this role would be situated don't live in DC, including me, and I'm allowed to say "the selectee's work location may be negotiable after selection."
I wish I could be clearer.

Next week I'm posting a job ad ($100k-$180k) for the most impactful data scientist to the humanities in the US. Federal role, can shape funding landscape, public understanding of the humanities, etc. It's an opportunity to make a real difference.
With this latest diasporic mastodon wave, and given the importance of the role and unique skills required, a humble request: please share this widely & urge Data/Viz/Stats/Humanities/SocSci folks to follow my account.
The role requires a bit of a unicorn, and I need to reach as wide a network as possible to fill it.
