Comment Realm of the tin foil hats (Score 1) 286

So much wrongness here: "Congress Admits UFOs Not 'Man-Made,' Says 'Threats' Increasing 'Exponentially'"
Let's break it down:
3. Congress as a single minded entity that can "admit" anything is a joke.
2. There is more evidence for solar system "Planet X" than "UFOs Not Man-Made".
1. "Threats increasing Exponentially" is just over-the-top tin foil hat.

Study Finds 58% of Tech Employees Feel Like Frauds (cnet.com) 224

"Feeling like a hack is more common than you might think," writes CNET: In fact, 58 percent of people with technology-focused careers suffer from Impostor Syndrome, according to a new informal study from workplace social media site Blind... Blind's user base includes 44,000 Microsoft employees, 29,000 from Amazon, 11,000 from Google, 8,000 from Uber, 7,000 from Facebook, and 6,000 from Apple, just to name a few. From Aug. 27, 2018 through Sept. 5, 2018, Blind asked its users one question in a survey -- "Do you suffer from Impostor Syndrome?" A total of 10,402 users on Blind responded.

Blind found that 57.55 percent surveyed experienced Impostor Syndrome. Seventy-two percent of Expedia employees say they experienced Impostor Syndrome, the highest among companies with at least 100 employee responses. On the lower end of the spectrum, only 44.45 percent of Apple employees experienced impostor syndrome.
