Interesting article. I found it very sad that the 1st person mentioned was identified most notably as "a former Google intern". One hopes that s/he has done something in life of more value than making coffee for other proclaimed ubermench

Reading this, one gets the impression that she's part of the problem that she describes. Living in the Bay Area, I loathed that SF culture enough to not spend any more time there than necessary. Which doesn't mean I thought more of San Jo

Why not? He doesn't seem any worse than most of the digerati out there. He'll be pivoting at Le Web in no time.

Bravo. How does one get a job if one is the opposite of the brogrammer that seems to be the model these days? I'd change professions if pair programming was the only way I could write software.
