How to Contribute to NI’s Network?

NumericaIdeas people are big believers in the Learn In Public way of thinking, it’s essentially our culture. That means, to be seen as impactful in the community you have to discover, learn, build, and share; and no matter how small you think your contribution is it’ll surely help someone to level up.

The most interesting part resides in your sharing ability, also being more of a creator than a consumer is always a big plus. How comfortable are you to have your content or ideas viewed by thousands (actual) or millions (the goal) of persons online? You don’t need to be perfect for that, more details are being provided in this article well-written by Swyx.
