as someone who for the longest time sat on my ass thinking to myself "no i can't do this yet i'm not good enough at the thing" FUCK that attitude so hard, i've achieved nothing because i never get "good enough", i could always get better and so, in my own perspective, i was never "enough"

fuck it and go do the thing without adequate skills, you'll learn on the way and even if you fail you'll have gotten something out of it

Hard agree!

but please consider not doing safety and security related stuff without properly researching first and probably should not deal with such things if you are uncertain and can't find anyone with expertise to help you out. Anything from blowing up shit in your own backyard to creating an online application that deals with user data

Edit: not saying don't ever do those things, everyone has the right to learn things, but so many fingers have been lost and so much personal data has been leaked due to not stopping for a moment to think in the heat of passion and excitement (or frustration).

But the pen is mightier than the sword!

Yeah maybe the disclaimer is a bit unnecessary here, just wanted to add to your comment just incase someone has been dying to make their own homemade fireworks
