The following is one of possibly many posts I'll be using to consolidate contributions to LinkedIn's Quora-esque collaborative articles wherein contributors can answer questions and respond to/upvote other answers. I really like the feature, especially the fact that each contribution is capped to 750 characters (so no redundancy).

For some questions, I have added footnotes that go beyond my 750 character contribution to the topic itself. I appreciate that I can tell my initial thoughts on LinkedIn, and expand upon them here.

I will be testing out the feature for the next upcoming weeks, and consolidate all my answers I have written through LinkedIn as blog posts on my personal website every Sunday.

About every year, my online presence gets convoluted between multiple platforms that I am trying out, and with multiple projects that I am trying out each year.

The following series (which is separate from my newsletter), is going to be a comprehensive deep dive into programming for Mac OS version 9: the ancient pre-UNIX version of the Operating System which barely has much documentation on the Internet today. This post is mainly initialization, I just got the VM working and a pipeline to install 3rd party (old) software :)
