With C, programmers of different types (there are certainly more than two) can be combined into one operational unit by a clever manager. Sometimes differently typed programmers will implicitly agree to adopt a uniform approach before working together on a project. Sometimes the programmers won't do this by themselves and so a manager is needed to explicitly guide them to adopt the appropriate type. However, some types stubbornly resist conversion, and so are tricky to work with. Pointy-headed programmers tend to be surprisingly flexible, and the ones who stare off into the void are often the most useful when you need them to function effectively. Overall, managers who can understand and utilize this hierarchy of programmer types in their organization may find themselves getting promoted regularly. Of course, many people can't stand these corporate structures and prefer the simple farmer's life, raising ducks instead. Quack!
