When you compete, you dont compete against others, you compete primarily against yourself. You try to reach bigger and bigger heights and become a better person. xkcd has something relevant: explainxkcd/wiki/index.php/1102:_Fastest-Growing Did Jennifer Lawrence lose by becoming the second youngest actress to have won the Oscars? Not on your life - shes a big star now. And its probable that there will soon be much younger filmmakers winning them. Similarly, in shlomifish.org/humour/TOWTF/ - The One with The Fountainhead I didnt try to write as well as Ayn Rand did, I was just trying to have some clean fun. And its a nice and enlightening modernisation instead of just a parody. Similarly shlomifish.org/humour/Summerschool-at-the-NSA/ #SummerNSA is my take on Atlas Shrugged of 2013, not a better work of fiction (and its much less TL;DRy). Dont try to be a better X. Be yourself, but draw inspiration from past and present heroes/hackers.
