I was a moron five years ago. Five months. ago, even. I’ve heard this from other programmers, so I don’t think I’m alone. They look back at old code they wrote and say, “What idiot. wrote this crap. ?” I used to wonder if this feeling would ever go away — as if I’d just get to the point where I’m super-awesome and that’s it. But over the years I’ve learned to rely. on this feeling. Were it ever to go away, then I’d be worried like hell. It would mean I’m not learning and not improving. So, yes, I’m proud. to have been such a moron so recently.
