Everybody is having to go around acting like a damn full-stack ghost in the civilization alone machine at age 19. It is ridiculous. I had like 1 skill and 0 areas of knowledge at 19. Now at 44, I have maybe 2 skills and 1 area of knowledge. I’m not a full-stack anything.

I can write. I can do some math. I understand management for tech companies well enough to help people with ut, that’s it. I can *talk* about more, and amateurishly do a few more things well enough for my own needs, but that’s not the same thing as being useful to others.

If I put that on a resume it would look really stupid. Maybe we need a movement towards absolutely minimalist capability/knowledge descriptions in resumes/CVs/LinkedIn... not everything can be reduced to show-over-tell GitHub commit history but we can get closer

Thank you. I thought I was paranoid in seeing this. Every job application and interview requires way more knowledge than the average person can possess. So either these unicorns are everywhere or people are fluffing their skills and hiring managers are buying it.

Best used car salesmen on the lot, only. It’s a high bar.

I've stopped bothering. Faking it, like networking, looks way to much like working. I prefer to just do real work. "Deep work," if you will. It's a brazen article of faith that my career will work out in the end. So far, so good enough.
