Lost in Translation
My background is in the web world - I've spent years wrangling Java, JavaScript (and countless frameworks based on it), PHP (from Zend to Laravel over Symfony and self-written solution), and the closest I ever got to the metal was writing C, of which I thought it would give me a head start for a game engine project. In a way, it did: I wasn't scared of pointers. But it also gave me a false sense of security.
