Great Hackers

viewpoint essay Python

if your society has no variation
in productivity, it's probably not because everyone is Thomas
Edison. It's probably because you have no Thomas Edisons.
In a low-tech society you don't see much variation in productivity
12 more annotations...
- when you hand people a complex tool
  like a computer, the variation in what they can do with
  it is enormous
- In programming, as
  in many fields, the hard part isn't solving problems, but deciding
  what problems to solve.
- Ordinary programmers write code to pay
  the bills. Great hackers think of it as something they do for fun,
  and which they're delighted to find people will pay them for.
- What do hackers want? Like all craftsmen, hackers like good tools.
- Good hackers find it unbearable
  to use bad tools. They'll simply refuse to work on projects with
  the wrong infrastructure.
- At any given time,
  there are only about ten or twenty places where hackers most want to
  work, and if you aren't one of them, you won't just have fewer
  great hackers, you'll have zero.
- The
  smart ones learn who the other smart ones are, and together
  they cook up new projects of their own.
- I've found that people who
  are great at something are not so much convinced of their own
  greatness as mystified at why everyone else seems so incompetent.
- But it's particularly hard for hackers to know how good they are,
  because it's hard to compare their work.
- The key to being a good hacker may be to work on what you like.
- you never have
  to work on boring projects
- you'll never allow yourself to do a half-assed job.
