  "The table characterizes the proficiency level (columns) of
   programmers of a particular programming language in the context of
   different programming activities (rows)."

  "This table is inspired by the CEFR table of the same name, for
   assessing proficiency in natural languages. Like the CEFR, this
   table divides learners into three broad level divisions: "Basic
   user" (A), "Independent user" (B) and "Proficient user" (C). The
   broad divisions are each further divided in two levels (A1, A2, B1,
   B2, C1, C2) that correspond to testable milestones in language
   acquisition."

Leaving only the problem of delusion of competence.

Oh, but that always was a major problem.

"I can devise new DSLs ... to increase my productivity and that of other
programmers."

Reminds me of another talk.

"Nothing says ``screw you'' like a DSL."
