We do only what we're meant to do.

Sobre a personalidade de desenvolvedores de software e sua relação com os gerentes:

"Some of us, myself included, will do our best work if we're only being bothered once every week or two. Just point us in the right direction and let us go.

We are all unique snowflakes and your job as a manager is going to be learning to deal with our various quirks.

Managing coders is kind of like taking a bunch of cats with serious ADD problems, strapping mind-controlled jet engines to them, putting them inside a blizzard of sparkly tinsel, and trying to drag-race them."

Brilhante.

Esse cara do Google virou um dos meus ídolos pessoais.
