Most of my career is gone without a trace that it ever existed, it's very disturbing to contemplate

So I guess this means my BeatConscious site from the 90s is gone as well ... 🤔 I should probably leave off paying registration fees on the domain name, in that case....

Back in 2010 I read that all sorts of research published on pdf files so it couldn’t be manipulated was disappearing. It was being ignored as a possible citation on new research (theses, etc.) ->

I'm rewatching Girls (husband's first time) and Hannah writing for a blogsite a la Gawker/Jezebel feels like such a distant time capsule. When blogs could launch careers and books, wowie!

This is why I won’t work in the gaming industry ever again. I worked for two years on a cool little mobile game. It was released, did not blow up, and then was taken off the servers and poof! Two years of my life… gone. At least my animation work is on YouTube somewhere.

I have most my work from Star Trek Lower Decks on blu ray cuz thankfully they release them. But like the other half of my career is on Solar Opposites which is only streaming on Hulu. I really want an archive of it cuz the internet is scary for preservation

New George Santos backstory addition- several articles published in prestigious but defunct publications. They were strangely prescient and well received, but sadly they're not available anymore.

In hopes of adding perspective, most of us who do not write for a living have nothing to show for our life's work but spent paychecks. That said, It's a crime that your work was not preserved. Your work made a valuable and lasting contribution to the betterment of society by educating us about 1/2

Ditto here. A lot of tools and content were simply removed because "it's too much trouble to provide". A lot of WordPressy / low attention span stuff instead. These folks are not Tufte fans.

The articles I wrote for tech mags in the 90s and 2000s are -- some of them -- on an archive site (with a broken search engine) run by a company who I presume bought out those publishers, many years ago. The mags themselves are gone (except for my collection of paper copies!)

Even with my legislative work they changed the structure of the bc hansard online archive and a lot of the indexes are now broken. You can still find stuff using page numbers if you know now how (I do) but it is a lot less functional than it used to be I think they’re still printing it in books too
