Everybody in my office (dev) prides themself on their great power of concentration. They can really get in the zone. Hyperfocus on that software all day.
But concentration has a dark side. When you focus on one thing you ignore 1000 other things. To the point of blindness even. And it can become a habit.
Such a creature, clear-sighted in his software work but blind to all else. That "all else" being a world of emotion and nuance and nameless fuzzy things.
That creature must surely be an asshole.

- helloplanets 3y agoJust making sure: The last sentence is sarcastic, right? If not, it turns around the point you're trying to make about the fuzzy world of emotions and nuance upside down in a bad way. And going for 'creature' as a stylistic choice doesn't help.
