Hi Sten, lemme tell you a few things here:

Firstly, when I asked these questions to my fellow workers, most of them couldn't answer them right. So, it's completely fine if you got all of these wrong. Important thing is that now you know a few things.

Secondly, building confidence takes some time. And accepting what you don't know is the first step towards it. We all have been through a stage a not knowing anything. The important part is how much efforts you put into learning these new things.

Here are a few things I do to build up my confidence:

  • I try to note down my learning into a note pad and revisit them once a week. At the end of the month, I look at my monthly learning and feel happy about it.
  • Mostly when I learn something new, I tend to share it with my colleagues. Sharing stuff adds up to my confidence.
  • I've signed up for some of JavaScript newsletter subscriptions. This allows me to keep myself up to date with what's happening in the JS community: JavaScript Weekly, Pony Foo.

Consistency always beats Intelligence. 😀
