It’s strange and a little dispiriting being in calls or in meetings and there’s a load of people blathering on about a technology and its functioning when it becomes clear that you’re the only one who actually knows how it really works. The others are making mouth noises that only serve to illustrate how it might work in some other world nothing like ours. They might believe they have a grasp of the tech, but in fact they do not.

It’s good to be the expert in the room but sometimes lonely.
