I wish my code was half as good as my expectations for how my code should be. My lattes are better than my code, so maybe I should make latte art instead of ascii art
I wonder if a radar chart is a good way to show where your skills land in comparison to each other, versus as a metric to be used against the rest of the world.
It makes sense to me to say that I’m more comfortable with React and JS than I am with CSS, although I know both of those enough to get most jobs done. That way if an employer is looking for someone who’s main focus is CSS, they can know that I may not be the best suited candidate for that role.
A radar chart is always a bad idea no matter what you try to represent. It is so confusing because it creates a 2D area while you want to compare 1D data, so basically anything you show on it is biased. Also you still can't measure your skills, so changing to a more confusing graph won't help you.
Hmm, I hate these types of ratings as well, though your idea of a radar chart actually sounds interesting. Especially as someone dual disciplined, overlapped. My JS QA skills may be awesome while I'm not experienced in JS development like I am in Python or R. That could be visuallized something like this example: chartjs.org/docs/latest/charts/rad...
There's still inherently a numerical score, though, so I doubt I'd use it :\ I'd much rather just list what I know in order of comfort rather than assign scores.

Yup, list by experience and comfort looks like a winner :)
