Total bullshit. I've worked with sysadmins who used to be film students. I know programmers who love musical theater.
Some people have innate abilities that make them better programmers, yes. But they have nothing to do with arbitrary cultural groupings tied to your particular country or social class, which apparently you think are universal.
- borplk 10y agoThe general pattern is there as I stressed of course exceptions exist and will always exist. You will find more programmers in a random sample of "nerdy/thinking" personality types than "artsy" ones. And you will find more musicians among artsy ones than the nerds. The cultural aspects can define things such as the type of activities that the people participate in but those broad groups (creatives & non-creatives) exist in all cultures.
