@mattl how would what work?

Right now your site doesn't have any summary of what you've worked on, who you worked for or what technologies you have experience with or are looking to work on. Unfortunately I can't match a specific job description to "worked on the web and open source for 25 years".

@mattl Some more unsolicited advice 😅 As someone that regularly reviews 100+ resumes a day, having to download, find and open your file if I'm on mobile is a BIG friction point.

If I can't immediately scan and get a good sense of your relevancy to my openings, it's unlikely I'll pigeonhole you into the "potential reach out" bin.

@Brendanjones This is an ignorant and frankly, privileged, wealthy North American take. Just because you personally have no use for it, you assume it has no value to humanity?

Wait until you have a Cypress, Argentina, or Venezuela situation. Or are unbanked in Malaysia.

If it had no value it would be long dead. Could it be better? Sure. Everything useful uses energy though.

Shit like this is why you can't have meaningful conversations about it.
