Sidenote: I love when people praise my contributions to the EA Forum. Posting here can be intimidating—the bar for quality of conversation is often really high, disagreements can be harsh, and especially when using my real name I don’t want to earn a bad reputation. So when other people offer positive feedback or sincere gratitude, it makes me really happy and encourages me to post more often.
If you want to encourage more discussion on the EA Forum, thank someone for their contributions. So thank you Michael!
In the same spirit, I’ll thank Aaron Gertler for his EAGx talk where he made a similar point to what you just said, which was part of what prompted me to actually write that comment. I initially just thought to myself “Great tips! I’ll definitely be actioning these idas”, then moved away from this post without commenting, but then thought “Wait, I should actually let Aidan know. #WhatWouldGertlerDo”
Thanks!
