Hi Folks! Four quick survey questions that'd help me out a lot.<p>https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1GhDiZoNLqft2F57OTJYN_023vmBHpz2oi6-bF8kL0h4/viewform?usp=send_form<p>Gist of the Survey: Techies & formal education
> Four quick survey questions that'd help me out a lot.<p>Let me tell you a public relations secret -- never ask for personal information from people when you provide no information about yourself. It sounds too one-sided and creates resistance.<p>For example, if you were mining HN readers for personal information in furtherance of some nefarious corporate goal, you wouldn't need to conceal your motive, but only because you haven't provided a motive. This frees readers to imagine what reasons you might have, and decline to participate.
