Don't feel bad about not knowing basic things
Gary Beverungen4y210

Thanks for writing this. I struggle with imposter syndrome sometimes and it's reassuring to be told I don't need to know everything, even if that should be obvious.

It's also worth mentioning that making a mistake doesn't necessarily indicate lack of knowledge. You can know something well and still make a mistake out of absentmindedness, lack of sleep, etc.
