Rub[berDuck]yConf, I :mustache: you a question
summary
Fails PhD exams twice then buys a diploma from a semi‑accredited mill, learns to diagnose personal learning style, and uses Slack and pairing to debug via I :mustache: you a question DMs. Learns Git rebase and ActiveRecord, keeps a pact to ask stupid questions to one teammate, and drops question frequency as a measurable milestone. Mentoring yields promotions — Daryl got promoted — and practical outcomes: features built, bugs fixed, confidence increased, and a conference talk given.
