Testing new in-progress features and everything is kind of working. Maybe at this point in my career I shouldn’t be surprised when my code actually works, but it’s still a nice feeling.

@manton I'm the opposite, the more experienced I get the more I'm surprised any of this works at all!

gestures at everything.

@ryanbooker exactly! 🤣

@ryanbooker I'm in this boat too. I'm retired now but still actively coding and messing about with systems, but it's not as though the code is approaching the flawless ideal I'd have hoped for.

Still, the "nice feeling" @manton mentioned – that little dopamine hit – is what has made it worth plugging along for nearly fifty years now.

@ianjs Absolutely. It’s why I do it too. But I’ve also seen too much. 😂

@manton same here, even after all these years, the imposter syndrome is strong in this one 😮‍💨🤣
