Please, let the term "rock star" die.

  but please.. not "ninja rockstar"

  Slippery slope though. We might need to throw in ninja, craftsman, hipster, and guru while we're at it, too.

    Rock stars get laid, I'll stick to it.

    that sounds like an awesome slope to slip down on. let's get rid of all of those ridiculous terms. how about we just use the oh so boring "professional" instead? i want respect from society for my work, not a cute pet title co-opted from other industries, where they can use these terms with a straight face and without rolled eyes from the audience.

      Unfortunately even "professional" gets a bum rap from some quarters: https://twitter.com/dhh/status/1631100714 https://twitter.com/dhh/status/1631100714 ;-)

  Not so fast. For now, it's a helpful indicator of shallow ideas.
