As someone with a degree in CompSci I hate how true this is. I knew so many brilliant programmers during my course that I had constant imposter syndrome… and 5 years out some of the ones I once regarded as the most talented still live with their parents because they can’t pass the turing test equivalent of an interview lol
One person I knew in particular was so physically incapable of getting through a single conversation without whipping out some pretentious insult that he’d make both Gregory House and Sheldon Cooper look like sycophants by contrast, hahaha
