An hour ago an actor was in my room trying to get a printer to work. He bounced all over the place, broke out into song and maniacal laughter, made a bunch of bizarre hand gestures while speaking, and talked to himself in full question-response format. ("What should I do now? You should click that. But what if it doesn't work? Trust me, you should..." etc.) Software developers are among some of the least weird people I know. They are more normalized in personality and have similar mannerisms, even at the very extremes of the group. The difference is that they have a sort of solipsism that persists in thinking they are somewhat standout and unique in large groups. They aren't. In fact, they're rather the opposite.
