I follow a lot of subjects and diverse interests but occasionally I catch myself staring at something I thought I knew and realize I’m not quite there.
Like I managed to get Flash Forth running on a microcontroller and a few basics beyond flashing a LED, but never figured out branching and looping in a way that clicks in my mind.
Or, how I follow a ton of science content from various sources, but feel like an idiot trying to talk about it with anyone IRL.
Does anyone else feel a disconnect from something like a digital mind versus analog life?
I find coming in low and simmering into a shared Convo is the way. I’m not baiting people or humble bragging, just underplaying my involvement or experience until necessary. Once invited i will dive in with the explicit understanding that I have. Taking a step towards my limit, they should pick up if i hit my limit.
