@cwebber I can't quite put words to it, but for me the most telling part of that post is the assumption that if programmers are curious, they must therefore be curious about *that specific thing*, and otherwise it must mean that they're not curious at all. As if it is the most interesting thing that could exist.
@joepie91 @cwebber I really liked the lobsters response along the lines of “yes, I’m curious. that’s why I want to understand what’s going on well enough to write the code myself”
