Note from 23 June 2021

I'm often ashamed to have to ask for help with JavaScript code, feeling like I'm not up to the task, like I'm an imposter with my few open source projects.

I shouldn't be.

But that's the way it is… 🤷‍♂️

    If it makes you feel better, I have no idea what I'm doing most of the time and I ask for help a lot. Plus you have made some great open source contributions!

    @nhoizey J'ai arrêté. Mais j'ai une bonne raison : je ne suis plus vraiment dans le code. Alors je fais une “dismissive gesture”, je dis “Oh, well” et je bois frais. :)Il faut admettre à un moment que la séniorisation passe souvent par moins de code et davantage de « vue de haut » (en tout cas dans mon cas). On fait avancer les projets, mais différemment, et c'est une vue nécessaire aussi.
