What do I think about Software Developers
I generally distinguish developers into following categories:
- Day-Job vs bright-light chasers and real hackers
- Generalists vs Specialists
- Application Developer vs Tool Builder
So, I consider myself hacker, generalist and tool builder. Like many other enthusiastics, I chase any new computer technologies and after chasing Java, Jini, CORBA, and J2EE for many years, I have putting more focus lately on light-weight J2EE, JXTA, J2ME, aspect-oriented programming, ruby and rails.
