> The article may have been written in anger, and thus it provokes anger. Good! Programmers who don't get angry while solving hard, inconvenient, uncomfortable problems are, in my experience, unlikely to truly solve those problems --- sweeping issues under the rug, or passing the problem to someone else is more likely.
That's a really interesting point and it makes me think of a developer that I've worked with (in a company of non-developers) who cared more about 'inconveniences' than I did.
It occurs to me that he did a much better job of engaging with these 'inconveniences' and fixing them.
Perhaps I should get a bit angrier?
