I feel like there’s this huge amount of never ending work and concepts before i can actually start do something cool with the knowledge i have, and i really want to start doing something cool.

I have been a software engineer for almost a decade and have used at least half a dozen languages professionally with as many frameworks and platforms. There are still concepts I don't understand; that is the nature of our work. There are always more things to know.

Part of the job is being able to emotionally grapple with this. We can't know everything, but we can try to get the job done with what we know right now.

I look back at my past work and laugh at how little I knew—but I still am proud of the work I did because I brought real value to the companies I worked for. I could probably do what took me 6 months at the beginning of my career in less than a week today. But I still did the work and helped my team. And what takes me 6 months right now I will probably be able to do in a week, if I were to try it 10 years from now.

Keep your head up. I would wager that you are more qualified than you think.

Hey, I lived there! We were lucky enough to stumble upon the last drag show. It was really powerful, I'm glad to hear the shows can go on!

It only makes sense if Huffman considers himself King; the moderators are a threat to his land!
