I think programming culture is full of people trying to up sell themselves, and it gives everyone a warped perception of self worth. I agree with this whole blog post, but it still itches me that the author has to frame his accomplishments as tiny when they seemed non trivial and apparently took place over nine years. It’s like if you aren’t working on enough buzzwords you must hedge your self worth.
- k__ 5y agoI can relate to the author. I met a bunch of people in my life that were smarter than me. All I do feels small compares to what they did. On the other hand, I don't remember people who did stuff that was less impressive than mine. Only the ones that failed spectacularly.
