Right, very condescending....

1. At no point do either of your definitions mention that the properties or terms are mutually exclusive.

2. You made a comparison between a resume and a portfolio, as opposed to a resume and a portfolio piece. The difference is crucial because the definition you provided mentioned the word collection - and because the "interactive resume" couldn't have been considered a collection of portfolio pieces.

3. In real life words often don't have such rigid boundaries. and thank god because otherwise the portfolio-resume would only be able to be discussed by people that have property-level understanding of the world and you would be the slack-jawed fool of the conversation.




My apologies, I misread you earlier, thinking you meant a "resume" and a "portfolio" were interchangeable.
