  Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish

  We're winding down Bragdocs, after nearly 5 years on the internet by my counting.
  
  I'm very sad to say goodbye, and also sad that we never found a way to make Bragdocs into what I always wanted it to be. 
  
  Thanks everyone for the ride.

  Let's get this going again!

  After a year of letting bragdocs marinade, we're going to start working on it again. I'm pumped.
  
  This Twitter post by Sarah Dresner turned up at the perfect time — the engagement and diversity of opinions on there serves to demonstrate the nuance to how we should be helping people build their new proof of work.
  
  Let's go!
