This story is actually about a really smart person making a stupid mistake and humbly admitting it. Hugo has some other interesting takes on his blog. I don’t know him. But just because you haven’t done the exact same thing — or never been is a position of responsibility where your mistakes can affect many other people, doesn’t mean that everyone doesn’t make mistakes. It just means that not everyone can learn from others mistakes.
