Just remember that attention is a limited resource and there are very likely things you know that would trigger similar reactions in others.
We tend to compare ourselves with the extreme outliers and even then we overlook their deficiencies and assume they additionally know everything we do. We also tend to conflate all the people we see talking about things we don't know as if they were all the same person.
It's okay not to know things. It's okay to make trade-offs. It helps to have some spatial awareness what else is going on outside your sphere of interest, but pick a handful of things and focus on them instead of trying to learn everything.

MithrilJS. Such an underated js framework.
I've never even heard of mithril. Very easy to be a developer and read threads like this and suddenly think "oh crap I don't know ANYTHING!"
