The fake-front-end expert

7 points by mrgreen ↗ HN
You can find him at some event/conference/meetup..

He is an expert, is Google Developer Expert..

You read his style guide..

You find his blog post about angularjs quite often..

You guess he is good..

He looks good..

He looks smart and confident, in his avatar..

You go to watch his event..

Everyone clap when he get to the stage..

His slides are nice, well formatted, with some graphic touches..

But the code on the slides is weird..

Oh wait.. is wrong..

He skip a slide..

Another snippet, wrong..

You became suspicious..

He is an expert you think..

Is this an expert? you think..

Q.A. he sweat..

He doesn't have a clue..

Everyone looks puzzled and leave..

A few startuppers definitely untechnical around him with their business card..

How many experts do you know like this?

I thought I'd tumbled onto 4chan for a moment. If you're going to be critical of others you may want to take the time to form a cohesive argument that isn't riddled with grammatical errors.
I personally know zero experts like this.
