I love this quiz. One thing that really sets me off. Is the attitude some developers have about other tech or stacks not being as "real" as whatever they use. Personally I think they do this to cover up their own insecurities. Imposter syndrome is a huge problem in our field. Be helpful, be welcoming, everyone is learning/struggling to figure out how to solve problems and keep up. There's no room for putting others down. If another dev makes you feel less. Remember whatever they said is probably more about them than it is about you.

@mscccc "If another dev makes you feel less. Remember whatever they said is probably more about them than it is about you." This really touched my heart. It's hard sometimes living in tech world San Francisco struggling to keep up with people that think they are better than you just because they are super insecure themselves. Sometimes it really seems like the tech industry here is biased to one specific type of person. This really needs to change because these people love to bring people like me and others down. It's a terrible thought.. Lacking the feeling of belonging. Thanks for making me feel like I belong Mike!

It's embarrassing the amount of time I've spent playing with the confetti.

@sadon92 After seeing this, I went to play with it for quite a while. I blame you!

Awesome design! Especially the confetti 🎉 What are you using to create that effect? 🤔

@bntzio Used GSAP + their physics2d plugin to move around rects on a canvas. You can check out my prototype here: http://codepen.io/elifitch/pen/a... Or you can check out the confetti generator in react component form on my github: https://github.com/elifitch/am-i... Sorry if the code is a wee bit messy 😅
