People on hackernews especially suffer from this because a lot of programmers tie their identity to being smart. Its the worst place to ask for advice against this because the people answering you are likely the most confidently biased people.
The happier and more confident someone is the more biased they tend to be.
The less confident someone is the less biased they tend to be.
Because you use the word "scared" I'm thinking you're not a confident person and therefore you're highly highly unbiased.
As a human, to live a happy life, we are evolved to be more biased then not. It is the cruel irony in life that your quest to seek the unbiased truth leads to less happiness.
I'm too lazy to cite this but there is actual research showing this. People who lie to themselves tend to be happier and more successful and people who are more honest with themselves... Tend to suffer from depression.
If you don't believe a word I say, then great, you're doing well. And you're really smart! Leave me a snappy reply showing how you disagree then go on and live your life.
