This sounds like "Smart person who has little technical experience and might have cognitive decline from age". The world is fully of people who's intelligence is legitimately lower than you might expect.

Cognitive decline from age is something the SWE community also neglects to think about.

You may feel superior to the average IQ person right now, but we're all going to regress to that point & worse at some point.

Design software & plan your life accordingly.

> The world is fully of people who's intelligence

What an example of a sentence a person *whose intelligence is lower than you might expect would write. I can only imagine this was intentional.

Could you clarify? Are you using the typo as this basis, or something else?

There were 2 typos in that sentence (the one I didn’t mention is “fully” instead of “full”). Talking about intelligence in such a sloppy manner sounded like a joke to me.

Ah sry - phone typing

This makes me think of "we're all just temporarily abled". This proves the point -- sometimes we're just typing on our phone, lol

I'm not the same person, but probably. There are at least two errors in the quoted fragment, though personally I don't think either is especially indicative of a lack of intelligence.
