Thanks for the post, it's very heartening!
I've suffered impostor syndrome long before I knew what it is. While actually I'm pretty good (at least above average developer) everywhere I've worked, yet those rock-stars in every workplace and interviews-for-superheroes always discourage me. You just pointed to the right symptoms (like, I can't recall a solution yet I do know where I've used it, and how to customize it into a new code after I read it again) that feed this impostor syndrome, and it's relieving to realize we're not alone in this.
