It's bad enough that I’ve included a line on my OKCupid account:“NO:Brogrammers”

Totally different angle, gender, and underling life experience here, but I also despise the rise of the brogrammer. I can easily be accused of jumping on the very same programming bandwagon, but (if so) I don't get along with my fellow passengers.

The lionization of programming as the only intellectual pursuit requiring grit, insight, or technical ability, combined with an complete ignorance of anything outside their tiny subset of experience, makes for a uniquely toxic and repellant combination (and don't even get me started on the straight-up fellatio of LEAN/AGILE methodologies). Throw in the money and entitlement and you've got a perfect storm of jackassery.
