This author sounds like he would be a poison pill on any team. We recently managed to get rid of someone that wasa this sure of himself that he had the impression that he carried the team. While his technical skill was sound (though no better than any halfway-decent senior developer) the reality was he was a poor communicator, kept knowledge to himself, posted snarky comments on reviews and cast apersions on everybody else's skills. He was an egomaniac and the team has fared much better without him. If you ever find yourself with a team member like the author of this blog post, be mindful of the damage they can cause because of their own inflated sense of self-worth.
