Maybe we should add, The Absolver: the "engineer" who likes to pigeonhole people into simple categories and absolve eirself from the responsibility of treating those people as complete human beings. The Absolver likes to blame the weaknesses in other people before their own. It goes both ways. Many of us have been guilty of some of these behaviors from time to time. The better of us learn to change and adapt. The important thing to remember when using generalizations like this is that they are simplistic and not representative -- it's not wrong to be a software developer who is concerned primarily with the intricacies of the kernel scheduler; it's a complex topic and specialization is useful in some organizations. It's rather useful to be someone who is articulate and able to stick to their opinions when they have the confidence and factual evidence to know they're right. I wouldn't really consider this a list of "anti-patterns." Patterns, yes, but people can change their behaviors with a little helpful prompting.
