A direct quote from my "expert-junior-evangelical" phase. When I marveled at my own cleverness & marketed my brand-new paradigms to my unfortunate peers. Lots of assertions, few citations, no research. All the fun was in coding, not in studying books or even the industry at large. Then, business requirements changed and I was left to maintain over-engineered monolith of my own making.
After a few cycles of hubris, I learned the danger of selling fads as evolutions. It hollows you out.
