You are taking things, way too seriously.

> I’m also skeptical of advice from someone who has only recently discovered a possible solution for his very personal problems and feels he should share it with the world.

Advice should never be just taken at face value. Even if it is a successful person giving it. Personally, any advice from Elon Musk is worth less, than any random link on HN.

> The author should just quietly repair his life and shelve his egotistical need for external validation.

This is just mean.

I one hundred percent guarantee that there are other people, with the same problem as the author. And his solution will be useful. Sharing is a net good.

TL;DR through a Dev World Prism: No, I completely disagree that only staff engineers should be allowed to have technical blogs.
