There are two types of software engineers: those who are anxious and those who are narcissistic and grandiose. This guy is easy to place in the latter category.
I was so happy when I got a job working with a guy who was super chill and a genius to boot, such an impossible combination to find.
Our mantra was pretty much do the best possible thing to reach the widest possible audience, nothing is off the table and no user is left behind completely. I learned such a wide variety of skills there. It went great for nearly a decade before everything went to shit because my guy had left and I was left to deal with a 3-1 managerial hell.
