Been thinking about this.

For now I find linked and github to be enough.

I had some idea to make a personalized website with a blog etc.

I kind of concluded that it might generate more harm than good in this highly offended-prone environment where what ever you write might be construed as something offensive even if the intent wasnt as such and while the stuff I would write about would be focused on programming and maybe my experiences and approaches I cannot predict that in 10 years someone, somewhre might be offended that I used this wording or that when naming my variables.

I'm overblowing it of course in the above example but it still stands that there is more beenfit at being neutral and unknown ( and therefore much easily hireable) than playing the cancel roulette.
