I notice that while Twitter allows me to productively interact with ~10 people, its main effect is public advertising that I am a big nerd, which may have negative utility. Please advise.

I get more responses when I post something that seems boringly obvious, and most if there is a perceived appeal to values. I realize that twitter is mostly a medium for social alignment instead of original thought, but find that depressing.

Those who gain the most are probably not responding: I read your stuff, being thankful for the perspective, but mostly don't feel quite competent enough to engage in discussion (competent enough to know you're ahead, which makes me shy). Don't equate responses with impact :)
