I'll shut up soon, I promise.
I occasionally get emails along these lines:
"""
Hi Dave
I'm [name], CEO of [large company]. My company is currently working on [topic]. We've seen your work on github and think we could learn from you about [topic].
Would you have [30 min for a call]?
"""
Is this a newish marketing / recruiting technique? I generally don't feel I have deep insight / skills regarding the topic at hand.
It feels a bit like link building - probably sent out to a lot of people?
