-I've come to realize that every programmer's journey is unique. Your journey is going to wend and wind into directions that mine did not. You'll have experiences that I won't share, and I've had experiences that will be difficult for you to replicate unless you have a time machine. But neither of our experiences is more valid than the other experiences of other programmers. The gaps in our knowledge are not an indictment of our abilities; they are places on the map that we can explore.
+I've come to realize that every programmer's journey is unique. Your journey is going to wend and wind in directions that are different than the directions that my journey took. You'll have experiences that I can't share, and I've had experiences that will be difficult for you to replicate unless you have a time machine. But neither of our experiences is more or less valid than each other, nor are they more or less valid than the experiences of other programmers. These are our experiences. The areas of our knowledge are only the areas that we've explored so far. There will always be gaps, but we can define those gaps as the areas that we haven't explored yet. There's always more to explore, and that exploration is the fun part of the journey.
