Re:How to be mediocre and be happy with yourself by zbuf on Monday August 22, 2016 @08:35AM (#12335847)
I think you're missing a subtlety (and the point of the article)

Mediocre continues to have the definition you state, but the article is about how then being mediocre is "a bad thing, to be avoided" in itself. Yes, it's a bit 'meta'.

Being bad at ski jumping or being good at ski jumping is likely to get you recognised; being average is not.
