Enjoyed two talks during #FOSDEM2021 today. One on imposter syndrome, and another on embedded Linux on RISC-V.

Most often it creeps up for me because I have no real formal training in any computing field, yet I have earned the label of “subject matter expert” in a few specific areas. When people I know to be extremely good at CompSci run across a mechanical problem and can’t grasp the failure mode sometimes that also triggers a feeling of “this must be what they feel like when I speak”. If I’ve struggled to solve a problem recently it’s worse.
