Agreed! Took a long time before I called myself a programmer, and I still feel off about it sometimes, because when we give ourselves titles like that, it's often assumed that it's a profession, but I make no money from programming. I have a hard time calling myself a guitarist, too. I haven't played my guitar properly in a year or two now. -_- But I was quite good at the time.
Maybe these people want to be someone they're not, or they want to be someone they are unable or simply can't be bothered to be, so they lie not only to us, but themselves.
What bugs me are the people on Kali, thinking simply being on there makes them a l33t hacker. Or those who run as root in a terminals all the time, thinking they're the master of Linux as a result. I either roll my eyes, laugh, or both, when I see that crap. I would not be surprised if these people run their entire graphical environment as root. Lol
Oh, wait, maybe worse still are complete amateurs to a topic making entire videos teaching others about it! That annoys me because of the inevitable misinformation. That's why it was ages before I even considered teaching other people for example, shell programming. Been caught out by that myself; it's really frustrating.

Exactly the amount of people who have said in videos on tiling windows managers -I just stole my configs from DT and modified the binds -. When I was building my BSPWM config sure I looked at other peoples dotfiles but I didnt directly use others dotfiles. I never directly copied and pasted and if I did I made sure to understand what that line did and why .
I looked at how it was setup to get an understanding of how things worked then changed things to fit my ideas on theming and workspaces. You dont really learn when you take someone elses dotfiles and dont know how to truly customize your system.

I don't think I've ever found anything you've said that I disagreed with to be something that is the opposite of true
At worst, any disagreements I've had are due to a common misunderstanding of the source material that gets repeated fairly often. Making it to be a form of educated wrong--or I guess a type of GIGO scenario
And even then--the stuff I would disagree with, I would say you are fairly accurate enough, that in a game of horse shoes you'd still get the point for it. Like not just in the ball park--but merely only off from where it would be better to move towards

hey dt, one of the most useful programs is Top in linux. Just found out you can easily tweak it a lot, to make it almost as good as htop. It would be nice to see your take on it, maybe explaining the more useful fields on the interface.
The tweaks I made were just typing -h- and following the instructions there. You can put colors, remove fields, etc etc. idk, just thought it could be a good topic. After tweaking the config can be saved using -W-.
I couldn't make it display human readable values in the top area (forgot the name).

This happened to me last week. I live by a Chinese/Asian grocery store here in Canada.... The girl when I was paying asked -how many bags?-. I said -one...and oh, one for my toilet paper-.... She gives me how many bags.. do you think? One. This is because a lot of the people there don't really know english... although they want to pretend that they do. In honesty.... sometimes it's easier to try to fake it and hope for the best, than to say: -I don't understand what you are saying....-. I can understand that as well.

What you're really referring to is non-educated people who claim to know something they have never really studied, meaning it probably is mostly opinion based. I also run into these people all the time, but I write it off as their own insecurities and feeling like they need to participate. They also believe it is all about what they know and don't know and what they have and don't have and not about who they are as a person and their integrity and what they have to offer mankind as an individual.

1.) I TRULY appreciate this subject matter. So thank you.
2.) Thank you so much for sharing that gorgeous scenery... I'm here in the north. BUT, I have been missing the south something fierce! I am not asking you to share your personal information/location but it reminds me of Mississippi, Louisiana, southern Bama, and some parts of Florida. DAMN, you've got me feelin' some kind of nostalgia, Brother...
...So, again... I thank you.

I feel like that is very runs very close to Linux elitism. People are a so eager to join the -club- that they overcompensate on the internet and end up being very toxic. That's not to say that all elitists and doing that, but the I think many of the ones who do are seeking validation from whoever they accept as a linux -expert.-

Script Kiddy is such an awesome label, even outside of traditional technical lingo. People often seem to read their views and values off of actual scripts, and then list them out with no forethought as if they were reading off of a teleprompter. Cool insight.
