humble? lol
genius? lol
he is certainly not humble and he's no smarter than anyone else. right place, right time.
his LACK of humility is what gave him the persistence required.
- smitty1e 4y agoWhile I have no inarguable proof to refute you, and maybe it's easy to sound cool when history has proven one correct, my characterization of "humble genius" is based on DC's low-key presentation within the podcast. At no point did I perceive him to assert any sort of personal superiority. While I use his JSON creation heavily, JavaScript as such is the second least attractive language, after PHP, in my view.
- naikrovek 4y agoat no point did you think that him saying "I was right all along and everyone who opposed me was wrong" is not a message of personal superiority? giving that message is to claim superiority over others, whether it is intentional or not. this podcast is the most humble I have ever heard him, to be fair, but make no mistake; DC is not a humble person. A humble person would not have said "JSON was my/our idea" or "I was right"; a humble person would not be on a podcast talking about themselves at all.
