This code is a disaster and the opposite of what OP describes. A clear case of Dunning–Kruger.
- kevinfiol 4y agoBut OP wasn't bragging about their 9gager project. Also, isn't it possible to be a good programmer but write bad code sometimes? Perhaps OP's best work just isn't on display. Trying to give the benefit of the doubt, but I generally don't think one toy Github project is conclusive evidence of anything, really.
- Kiro 4y agoThe 9gager project is at the top of his site (https://www.c2kb.com/ https://www.c2kb.com/). It's definitely on display. > Trying to give the benefit of the doubt Why? Even if he's actually a really good programmer like he claims, it's a massive display of hubris. We should encourage humbleness.
