Based on your respective comments, I'd expect that the writer of the grandparent comment is the former type, while you are more the second type. Both are fine.
- czechdeveloper 7y agoThere is nothing wrong with doing stuff just for fun. There is nothing wrong with being focused on just few issues. But I have doubts when you claim some knowledge without being able to use it practically, which is what I see here. If I'd say I'm jack of all trades, as I'm interrsted in software - but i hire a guy to make all the code for me because I don't know how - and that I'm very interested in knives - but my wife sharpens our knives as I don't know how - I have doubts about your actual knowledge if those fields.
