Fear, shame and anxiety of unprocessed feelings - the trifecta that ruins progress and thwarts joy in life (and work).
I am just as prone to it as anyone. Today I took a moment to write about my journey through it.

Heads up! Some nonsense has been going on and I need people to know about it!

I struggle to give any credibility to a #linkedin article that uses the bizarre American spelling of "impostor". To me it's just a red line spelling error.
Does this make the author an actual impostor? 🥁

You know that #impostor syndrome that happens when you stray to the edge of your comfort zone?
When your confidence crumbles and you question: can I really have anything to contribute here?
Fortunately, as a middle-aged white English-speaking privately-educated European cishet man who is nearly 2 metres tall I don’t get that.
It must suck though.

What's the word for "amateur among amateurs"?
Preferably in English but will also accept German (because you know they've got, I mean make up, a word for that). 😆
Asking for a me, looking to describe self in any area in which I dabble.

I think about this a lot. I’ve been making my living in #bioinformatics for almost twenty years (!) with a #PhD for ten: if I’m not “good at it” by now, I’m doing something seriously wrong. But #impostor #syndrome never stops whispering in the back of my head. Probably that’s true of most competent people in most fields.
The problem is that while self-doubt may be necessary for competence, it’s not sufficient. So you never really know.

Today in #Impostor Syndrome: I've spent much of the weekend trying to stand up a self-hosted #Bitwarden instance on a slightly old Mac (running Big Sur,) which requires a way to run Docker-compatible containers.
I’ve been running Macs for 30+ years. I work with containers at $DAYJOB. Can’t get any of the recommended means of doing this on a Mac working.
May need to resort to Rocky on VMWare Fusion as the host… Troubleshooting via podman or colima is a bitch. -

Whenever #impostor #syndrome hits, I feel like a villain in my own story. 🙎♀️
Especially when I remember the that a scheduling conflict in high school led to me picking computer science and physics over biology and computer science.
(a bioinformatics degree was what I was actually lining myself up for, *gestures at self* and look at what I've done with my life)

"My Job History"
I used to be a spry young man
Living out of a Chevy van
And working any job I could.
Back then I thought that I was good
At any task I tried to tackle.
But money has become my shackle,
So now I mostly work from home
And suffer from impostor syndrome.#poetry #smallpoems #poetrycommunity #work #money #experience #outdoors #freedom #economy #workfromhome #wfh

Riddle:
I’m father’s choice, but mother dotes
On you. She bid you kill two goats
And serve them up to win his blessing
Impersonating me and dressing
In their skins. You’ve been at my heels
And cooking up deceptive meals
Since birth. My due now goes to you…
I sold it for a bowl of stew.Who are we?

@lorddimwit Is this just another attempt to support my #impostor complex and remind me that nobody can understand #Haskell without many years studying for the CS degree?

Situation: I'm working on a proposal where, from a 10kft view, one of the things I want to address and improve on is (e.g.) "reusable components" or "better abstractions" for some class of functionality in a software system where there already exist a handful of commonly-used options. As a result, I'm reviewing recent related work (presentations, papers, tutorial materials), and the developers of those materials claim that their option embodies those features (e.g. "reusable and good abstractions").
I'm having a hard time reconciling my intuitive understanding of perceived inefficiencies with the authors' claims, and I'm skeptical of both 1) dismissing their claims on the basis of my intuition being somehow more valid and 2) dismissing my intuition on account of being naive and less experienced than the authors.
...Ok, having written this out I'm feeling like the actual problem is that I haven't defined my problem well enough. But since we're here I'll at least ask, is there a name for this kind of thought pattern? #phd #impostor #gradstudent

I thought about not being confident enough - as a product designer, writer, runner.... whatever role you like - and am confident enough for sharing what I thought and wrote about. Here it is.

🎧 Hörtipp zum Wochenende: Wie unterscheiden sich gelegentliche Selbstzweifel vom echten #Impostor-Phänomen, unter dem besonders mehrfach marginalisierte Menschen leiden? Ist Impostern ein gesellschaftlich gemachtes Konstrukt oder vielmehr eine Frage der persönlichen Ressourcen? Und wie kann ich diesen Gefühlen begegnen?
Antworten gibt der @lila_podcast diesmal mit Psychologin Marlene #Kollmayer von der #UniWien. #LilaPodcast
