Too Long; Didn't Read

Larry Wall named the Three Virtues of a Programmer: Laziness, Impatience, and Hubris. These “virtues” are complete and utter bullshit. The attitude problem is one of my least favorite problems in the tech world right now. We have a “bro” issue. Perhaps one reason is that it’s filled with arrogant assholes. Women and minorities don’t want to work in tech because of the attitude problem. We are setting ourselves up for failure, broishness in particular, in particular.
