I found that I now distrust a lot of articles as people tend to get the things in my field blatantly wrong all the time.

Things are complicated and rarely as simple as they seem.

On the other hand, I've worked on things for hours before for someone to glance at the problem and solve it. Always a humbling experience.

I never knew there was a name for this, but I feel like everyone has come across this feeling at some point in their life.
