The older I get the more I realize that after you get to about average intelligence, it's control over emotions that matters far more than intelligence or technical knowledge if you're not working completely alone. That, I think, is why the stereotypes about software developers in the 80s don't seem to apply to modern software developers (why they're more sociable, why they make way more money, etc.) Now it's all about interfaces and community with a little bit of technical work where before it was mostly just you and the computer.
