I earned a million dollars as a mediocre, 70-year-old programmer
- injb 3y ago>>> Why do brilliant programmers make bad teachers? It’s called the curse of knowledge. Some of the smartest authors in the business are clueless about a beginner’s needs. So true. I'm usually good at teaching and explaining things but after learning software development gradually over the course of my whole life, I have no idea what its' like for beginners, especially nowadays that stacks have so many layers.

- injb 3y agoLol if you were pointing out that I basically called myself a brilliant programmer, it was an accident I swear!
