In plain words: I suck. The day I stop sucking, is the day I stop learning. I'm not better than anyone.

- mnicole 14y agoFantastic perspective.
- pjscott 14y agoIf you're average, then there are a lot of coders who are objectively less skilled than you, by any reasonable metric. Being humble doesn't require you to claim otherwise.
- orangethirty 14y agoI'm not being humble, or trying to be (or trying to appear to be). That's how I really feel. I suck. I'm not average, either. I actually think I'm the worst guy in the room. How come? It helps me prevail over any obstacle. By understanding that I suck, any problem that makes me stumble is not too small for me to tackle. Doesn't matter your skills or experience, everyone always hits bumps.
