I don’t know if there is one person who is a “know-it-all”. My brother is one of the smartest people I know and everytime we catch up, I learn something new. We can have very in-depth conversations on political ideologies and history, science, general knowledge (and he is the only one who can keep up with my geekiness) and we can have really simple ones - like the other day, I realized the only Trump I will support is Judd Trump. But try having a conversation on colors and you get nowhere. Jack is also smart. I pick up something new with each of his talks - he drops high level clues to get people thinking - like the whole open source ecosystem. Of late I realized that many that I thought were smart were just people who bragged a lot, and sold themselves really well and because I didn't know enough at that point I was impressed. I think it helps to be really curious about things and see what feeds your curiosity - you can learn something new from anywhere.
