I hope you didn't get in too much trouble over the fidget spinner incident.
I think that this is the Dunning-Kruger effect but let me know if I'm wrong.
I went on to learn that the same is true for everything I will every study. I internalized that. It became the lens through which I viewed everything I had ever learned. And now, I find that even if I am the person most familiar with a subject I will accede to the judgement of others.
One time in trying to better understand encryption, before I had read anything about how existing schemes functioned, I came up with the shittiest version of RSA. 😐 Turns out it's more complicated than 21 year old me thought it was.
Nettle tea was a bust. Not my thing. I'm going back to my Bavarian Vanilla Cream. http://www.mountainwitchtea.com/bavarian-vanilla-cream-tea.html
If you don't know, every year I work with the charity marathon over at https://desertbus.org/ to do a poster for the event, which raises money for children's hospitals.
As this nerdy week-long marathon happens (starting Nov. 17th this year!) I watch the entire thing and draw the silly stuff they do on stream to fill up the poster.
They're on their 11th year of doing this, and I've already started on the poster. You can see below the one I did for Desrert Bus 9, and the one I just started for Desert Bus 11!
Tune in, spread the word, and donate if you can. Or just watch, I have a tun of fun seeing it each year!
I'm making stinging nettle tea for the first time.
@psychtyson Wrestling is real.
@ihorner My fiance got me a four pack of what may be my new favorite beer. Founders Brewing Company's Curmudgeon.
