One of the lessons I've learned in life is that there are some people that will impress you very much when you first meet them. They will talk a lot about how much they're doing and what's going on for them and it will sound very impressive.
After knowing them for a while I start to see that they are just full of it. This has happened multiple times that I find there is a strong inverse correlation between the amount of talk someone does and the amount they actually get done.
People who has shipped stuff has a portfolio/track record of stuff to show, thus they don't feel the urge to sound overly impressive when meeting someone the first time. imho
