Observe corporate programmers --> zoo animals = small leap
Writing about what you know ---> "Participatory Narcissism" = large leap
Funny, Jeff Atwood does EXACTLY what he accuses pg of doing, albeit with less style.
pg is at a unique intersection to observe that which most never see. We don't have to agree with the leap - that's what makes this a forum instead of a circle jerk.
I, for one, look forward to pg writing about what he knows. If only others did it as well.
Observe Something (mostly objective)
Generalize (subjective leap)
Expand (more subjective)
Conclude & Recommend (very subjective)
Let It Go (expose bullseye)
