timeissuspect [morganm]: I was a little nervous of writing about investing because I don't want to fall foul of any financial advice regulations. So I put a disclaimer in the template of every post on that topic.
# timeissuspect But my motivation was to share knowledge because I had literally nothing to go on when I started 25+ years ago. A blog is a good way to do that, because it's free of any drama.

# [morganm] I talk about web performance on my blog / website and curate stuff about it for several reasons. I do actually love the craft element of it, and also the engineering or speed aspect of it, but also I do it to present myself with a sort of persona I have trouble articulating but basically somehow being a web performance guy seemed like a good sort of less-assuming persona than other titles. It lends itself to blogs or website forms of
# [morganm] communication, because there is a sort of competitiveness or “Im grading your website” implication to some folks? Maybe a website was always a good way to present that sort of info to be like “Here is my stuff, read if you want to!” with some blogging conventions
# [morganm] Also, still figuring out the multi-platform sync’d chat here, but I thumbs-up’d your messages in Slack heh. They are good blog posts!

# [morganm] I added an accessibility statement to a website I am working on. Nestled nicely in a details summary element 🙂
# 
[tantek] morganm++ excellent! would you consider adding it to https://indieweb.org/accessibility_statement#IndieWeb_Examples or is it a different kind of example?
# [morganm] Ill add it sometime soon 😄
