>Yet, I don't want to call myself better, because most people here are better than me. Yet this leaves me with quite a strange view of everything. I'm not a great programmer, but I'm not as bad as those guys who worked at some big name place. Where does that leave me? Who knows.

If you think you're bad, you're probably way above average :p
- orangethirty 14y agoYou are probably right. I just hate saying I'm better than that guy or that girl. Because programming is so complex, that I might be great at doing some things, while others might be great at doing others. Does that mean I'm better? No. That means I have to improve to learn what others do better than me. There is no way to talk about this without sounding weird. (:
