Nothing of what you said disputes what I said. Programmers are well paid and have a high social standing compares to real blue-collar jobs. Programmers are in no way blue collar jobs.
- throwawayjava 9y agoMy point is that "blue collar" is not a static description, and there is no One True definition passed down from the Gods of Social Class. > Programmers are well paid and have a high social standing compares to real blue-collar jobs Neither of those is universally true, and it's not even clear to me that they're true often enough to justify your generalization.

- pfarnsworth 9y agoThat's exactly what I wanted to say without breaking HN rules.
