Is it Imposter Syndrome if you really are an imposter?

If you are “faking it til you make it”, is that imposter syndrome? Or just flat out imposter?

No, because they are not full of the self doubt.

Imposter syndrome is what hits those people that focus on certs and have no real world experience. The experience is what tells you you do not need to know every possible thing,but just focus on what is generally incorrect and troubleshoot into the niche.

After getting enough experience you realize nobody can know everything and there is always a fog of war. Strategy and technique are the tools to guide what knowledge you do have.
