How Developers Stop Learning: Rise of the Expert Beginner

And now for something else to help make sure we never escape the Imposter Syndrome. "What if my learned skills aren't _really_ down pat? Maybe I am an imposter after all!"

An interesting article for sure; I don't know how to switch between erring on the side of "keep yourself humble, don't fall into the trap of Expert Beginner" as referenced in this article, vs. "don't have yet another existential crisis, you are not an imposter and can do your job".

My frustration is so what if they're not an expert. You wouldn't hire a car engineer if you just need someone to drive the car.

Don't get me wrong if you need your building the next google or something sure go hire for it.

But, if your build a Saas or your core business isn't software, why?

What's the fascination with 10x developers since they probably need to switch jobs constantly to get that 10x perspective.

Also, did you really need that bleeding edge tech when it fizzled out a year later anyway.
