There is a difference between knowing and understanding. As Anthony says,
there's a lot more to this stuff than maths (as much as we owe to E.J.
Dijkstra for making it clear that software is indeed, on some level,
mathematics).

The longer I work in software, the more my horizon has expanded from me and
my competencies, my team and what they do, the broader organisation, the
customer, to the community/ecosystem. Many of you here are familiar with
this journey yourselves, and aware of it at a conscious level.

Also as my journey expands my horizon outwards, there is another
simultaneous but separate journey that expands my horizon *inwards*...
