We are seeing a generation of loud mouthed bloggers emerging that talk about the "craft" and programming with this pattern, or that methodology, or this tier, or that object...yadda yadda yadda. That is all fine and good, but I find many of these new programmers are resume programmers...programmers more concerned with building their resumes and their "craft" tool box rather then meeting actual client needs. To be honest, these folks are kind of burning me out a bit. Seems the louder they get, the less fun programming becomes... And building solutions is fun. So I have decided to ignore most of the blogging hip hop young coding facist. Let them take two years of development time to build a web site that sits upon layer after abstracted layer of patterns and frameworks and tiers...I'll slip right by...and I won't clean up their messes anymore after they have moved on to the next big gig to sharpen their "craft".
