Stupid people don’t know how stupid they are, how aware of your limitations are you, bearing in mind being aware of how stupid you are is a sign of intelligence ?! |

"This thread is nowhere near as good as i think it is.
It's better than my one on Duckworth-Lewis which got stopped halfway through. "
I’m still struggling with calculations of that thread. |

Is that the one where people with a little bit of knowledge on a given topic go overboard with it, assuming they know everything? I'm a bit of an expert on that, you know  |

"This thread deserves more appreciation though.
I think it’s too highbrow for the lounge, look at what I’m competing with.  "
I think you’re branding is the problem, not the product.
Perhaps ‘Do you think you’re great but everyone else thinks you suck’ or suchlike? |

Yeah sort of. It’s more that we aren’t very good at evaluating ourselves accurately, most people overestimate their abilities. They found what often happens is the people with the least ability overate themselves the most. We all have areas of incompetence we don’t recognise, we’ve all got a blind spot. |

That’s the commercial option, I like to go at it from left field, may get fewer comments but I like to stick to my principles. |

"Perfect evidence of this is to be found within the organisation that we work for.....we appear to be lions led by donkeys. "
And that we ended up with Brexit. |

"Would you like some help with this thread CJ?
Not really, niche is my forte
You seem quite confident about that  "
Maybe it’s my blind spot and it’s not my forte at all. |

"I spent far too long Googling it because I knew I didn't know enough about it to post a sensible comment and then I forgot to post until now. Sorry City. "
And then when you did post, this was the best you could come up with. |

Come now, it makes a little hint to the thread subject (what with me being aware of my limits on knowledge of Dunning-Kruger), it includes an apology. What more could you expect on a Friday night Estra? |

If you don’t know enough on a subject always wing it and pad it out with a few quotes from a French sculptor or some shit. |

You know the Slovakian poet Dmitri Mazfelkov once said "He who pads once can only live a life of deceit and misery unless the veil of padding conveys wisdom" |

See what you did there!
I had to google this - which presumably means I’m not as literate/articulate as I thought I was.
I think I neither overestimate nor underestimate my abilities. I’m crap at many things, adequate at some - and damned good at a very few.
I’d say I’m confident in who I am and realistic about my talents - or lack of them. |
