I post this as the truth I have discovered in the IT industry, and I’m pretty sure it carries over to all people over all careers. We start out in the “I know nothing” (discovery) phase, followed by the “I’m an expert” (cocky) phase, followed once again by the “I know nothing” (only scratched the surface) phase.

We begin to realize as we get older how much more there really is to know, and how little we actually know in comparison. One of life’s lessons put very easily on a graph.

Proof that even the junkiest areas can be rehabilitated and turned into HUGE tourist attractions!

My first lesson in incompatibility! When I was 9 years old, I created a Baseball game in BASIC using lo-res Apple graphics (pictured below). I’m still a huge fan of the Apple ][ platform and I still have a working Apple ][gs that gets use from time to time…
