I don't see the issue with "brogrammers". I can understand people from the outside thinking that all programmers are nerds with 2 inch deep glasses with no social life at all. But actual programmers should know better.
What now? "familymangrammers" and "hippiegrammers" and "athletegrammers"?
Makes no sense to me...
- grexi 13y agoIt's a matter of manners, and being the nice guy vs. being a "bro", IMHO.
- rickjames28 13y agoNo, it's actually more than that. What it really is a rejection of maybe athletic and/or socially adept programmers. It's a way for certain stereotypical developers to feel better about themselves.
- kybernetyk 13y agoYup, you could say the same about 'bro accountants' or 'bro janitors'. I guess people have a problem with 'bro' culture rather than with 'brogrammers' specifically.
- walshemj 13y ago"familymangrammers" back in the day those where the ones who wore navy blazers with shiny brass buttons and worked at Computer Associates writing COBOL applications. And the traditional Nerd programer always had a more sporty outdoors type as well as the traditional fat pizza eating basement resident.
