AstroMancer5G (she/her)I think #writing my #personal statement and #CV for #job and #GradSchool applications has been helping me beat my #ImpostorSyndrome and remember how much I love my field.

River City Random ☑️@Mepurfield I have written 2.5 novels, I care for my disabled spouse and father, and I go out every day to grease the wheels of capitalism with my own blood, sweat, and tears, and I still feel like a lumpo who doesn't contribute to society. I totally get this feeling. #impostorsyndrome

Space Hobo@retroadventurers.bsky.social I had a lot of fun coming up with this conceit, playing the OLDEST and the YOUNGEST editions of #Zork 1 to come from the MIT/#Infocom core teams. This is a slightly short episode (as playing the same game twice is a bit cheeky given our format), but both these versions of the game are a must-see for completists in the genre.
I mention in passing that I always had a bit of #ImpostorSyndrome around Zork, as I have held the domain `zork.net` since the mid/late 90s. I always felt like I was simultaneously dodging #Activision's lawyers and feeling awkward around the die-hard fans who played until they got every last point. Now that #Microsoft has released everything under an open licence, I should probably put a free build up on my site in #Parchment to celebrate!
The Zork-285 game is interesting in that it did not call itself "Zork"! You'll have to listen to the latest #RetroAdventurers episode to find out what it says. #InteractiveFiction

Jill Binder [she/her]I received a good question:
“What’s the biggest challenge in #PublicSpeaking for tech?”
Back in 2017, working with underrepresented voices, the hurdles were:
- “I’m not an expert”
- “What would I talk about?”
My #DEIB work focused on re-framing expertise (#ImpostorSyndrome) + finding topics.
Now, coaching all voices, challenges are:
- Writing engaging talks
- Managing nerves
- Speaking clearly
What would it take for you to give your first talk, or your next talk, in 2026? :)

Personne ne sait tout, même ceux qui ont le diplôme encadré au mur. Andy Bell le dit bien : être autodidacte, c'est avoir appris à apprendre, et ça, ça vaut de l'or. Arrêtez de vous comparer, construisez des trucs qui marchent.

Programming principles for self taught front-end developers
The majority of us are a bunch of self taught people with rather spotty knowledge and that's fine! Kilian (also self taught) is here to share some of the computer science fundamentals you probably are missing with the aim to improve your code in the long term.
