There are so few famous people online that have been so giving with their time, willing to reply to every email.
I think your (public) actions speak volumes about who you are.
Your writing (and also whenever you’re interviewed on a podcast) has had a huge positive impact on me. I appreciate it and you (or at least the public persona of you).
It's weirder to read comments claiming to know about my personal life and motivations, though they're all wrong. (Both the good and the bad.)
The public me is not me - https://sivers.org/publicu - so I don't feel a great need to correct the errors here.
But thanks (tw04, lukego, marcinzm, s_a_p) for the reminder that anything I do can be spun negative.
