> Or another example: My dad told me that he wants to dabble in programming, but MySQL isn’t compatible with his laptop. My response? "Yeah there’s no way that’s true. MySQL will work on anything." Instead of taking a look at this laptop and working on the problem with him, I just told him that he's wrong and he doesn't know what he's doing (basically). Yeaaaaah this was fucking eye opening for me and now I need to go re-evaluate a bunch of things. Thanks for this piece. I have a lot to work on now.
