    Yes, I fall everywhere on the knowledge spectrum. It just depends on which niche area I’m fixating on that day.

      Amazing how wide the gaps can be in tech. A friend of mine is all over Windows power shell scripting of which I know next to nothing about, but he’s just as stumped when he sees me writing C for embedded microcontrollers.

      But people who aren’t heavily into tech will just look at both of us and ask to fix their printer because we’re both “good with computers”. 🤣
