There's a stark difference between self motivated curious people and certification collectors even though on the surface they can look very similar.

Yeah but writing detailed blog posts about the experience is usually a signal pointing toward the former group

Writing detailed blog posts about the experience is rather usually a signal that the person is an annoying self-promoter. :-(

Same issue with the cert collector.

Some people with certs and some people with blogs are legit.

A lot of them are really eager to be seen and that's it.

Some people are legit and some people are not. Got it. Thanks for the clarification and analysis.

A bachelors degree is way different than a program certificate.
