Coders talk too much. They are in love with themselves.<p>Did you ever hear a cabinetmaker talk about all the considerations that went into the new cabinet he made, how he did the planing just right to hide that knot in the wood, or how he chose just the right species of wood, or how he had to feather the one cut because of a loose blade or the fact that the finish the customer asked for would expand the wood? Did you ever see a carpenter write 5 paragraphs on how much thought and consideration went into how he leveled the kitchen cabinet on such an uneven floor?<p>No. They know their jobs, they do their jobs, they appreciate and strive for excellence, and they go home at night.<p>Did you ever hear a doctor wax poetic about how fabulous a job they did excising the tumor from the patient's brain, how they brought in just the right amount of outside expertise, how they deliberated just long enough to be prudent and then took action at just the right time? How they balanced and weighed all the factors, the age of the patient, the seriousness of the tumor, the location, the likely disruption, the family support and post-operative therapy plan.<p>No. They do their jobs, they work hard, then they go home.<p>What is it with all these coders who cannot just do their jobs and do them well, and then shut up?<p>We GET IT. YOU'RE FABULOUS. YOU THINK IMPORTANT THOUGHTS ABOUT SOFTWARE AND INTERFACES AND SO ON.
