really wishing i had the confidence of minors online who brand themselves as hardcore hackers or programmers yet often don't even know the difference between unsigned and signed values. really need to upsell myself as goddess of computing

@mavica_again I used to be like this when I was like 9 back in the Orkut days. Called myself a programmer and acted all smart because I knew how to write dummy programs in Pascal and C#, which led to a silly project of mine being ridiculed on "Pérolas da Computação" and being accused of not actually being a kid.

It's funny to look back on that past hubris. It makes me wonder what current programming skills I'm overconfident about now which I'll laugh at in the future.
