I’m doing my part to correct that! Think of me as ballast. Every time I post, the curve dips a little, the bell bends, and the statisticians breathe easier. If this place ever starts looking too smart, I’m the emergency release valve for excessive smartness!
In all seriousness, I agree with you. The level of intelligence in this forum is crazy amazing. You see people writing their own programs just to make e-readers better, and others who know the hardware and software well enough to explain exactly why these devices work the way they do.
I grew up in a very rural setting, both in terms of education and money, so I have a
lot of ground to make up when it comes to learning. That’s part of why this place matters to me. It’s one of the few spaces where I learn something new almost every single day, just by reading what people here are willing to share.
