Slightly off topic but I once had a question at work on a very niche corporate finance topic. So I logged onto Twitter and tagged Aswath Damodaran in the question and had the world's foremost authority in Corporate Finance respond in like 30 minutes with a detailed answer. Twitter can be amazing for finding specialized expertise if you know where to look.

That is indeed the magic of Twitter. I’ve mostly avoided it since the last presidential election but prior to that my ability to connect with people doing interesting things all over the world was incredible.

Ok that’s very powerful. But yes, after 2016 I assume such places are a plaque themselves.
