-# On Rincewind
-
-[Rincewind](http://wiki.lspace.org/mediawiki/index.php/Rincewind), we are
-told, is a wizard. On the Disc, wizarding is a profession; Pratchett based
-them on the English academic system, with colleges and bursars and tenure. A
-wizard is a man of some academic distinction, or a student of such a man;
-career wizards are uniformly well-fed, of sound body (if not necessarily of
-sound mind) reasonably dressed, opinionated, crankish, and - importantly -
-capable of magic.
-
-Rincewind is a wizard: he is not well fed, having spent his life being thrust
-from one adventure to the next; his body is more attuned for running away
-from things than it is for meandering the halls or sitting by a fire; his
-opinions largely revolve around “is this new thing going to eat me,” rather
-than more abstract matters; importantly, he is completely incapable of magic,
-in spite of years of study.
-
-Rincewind is a wizard, and the interesting thing about that is that the
-reader is expected (and I certainly did) take both his and the narrator's
-insistence on it at face value. Why shouldn't we?

-I had a conversation with [@aeletich](https://twitter.com/aeleitch) a while
-back, while she was teaching herself to program. I don't recall exactly what
-prompted it, but at one point I told her to stop worrying about all the
-better programmers out there: from everyone else's point of view, she was
-already a wizard. There might be better wizards, and worse wizards, but she'd
-already passed any sort of bright line delimiting “not a programmer” from
-“programmer.”
-
-I think self-identification is important, and overlooked.
