As a developer who is in this ecosystem so long that it makes me shrug when I think about it, I loved the humble writing style and loved the fact that she could teach me a thing or two.
Being able to say "I don't know how this works" requires a lot of experience too, not just confidence.
Especially in an interview, people saying "I don't know anything about what you asked", depending on the requirements, can end the interview but could also make the candidate gain a lot of points.
Thanks for the write-up!
- myfavoritedog 5y agoIf only more people in all walks of life these days started from a perspective of humility at what they don't know, then were really super careful to avoid giving the impression that they knew more than they did. Sadly... social media, media, law, politics, and even science are all about overstating what should be said with lots of caveats about lack of knowledge.
