[net.misc] Myth of the Wierd Ace Programmer

rwg (10/12/82)

For others like pedalman@ittapp who believe that good programmers are wierd
ones, I refer you to Joe Weizenbaum's piece on "Science and the Compulsive
Programmer," from Computer Power and Human Reason, 1976.  He has very little
good to say about the traditional "hacker."
