Lots of assumptions about how developers date, marry, number of kids and what their wife income is. Wives work too, this is not 1800.
The open source world is not a world of autism. I've attended many presentations by successful open source project members and in most cases they're excellent and effective communicators. Many open source organizations are heavily social and cohesive in nature.
In my case the traits I see in mediocre people are:
- heavily materialistic
- focused solely on some getting promoted and compensated (e.g: being liked by managers, shipping incomplete features, taking credit for everything, repeating buzzwords) instead actually pursuing quality
- stopped learning after college. can do programming puzzles perfectly but keep reinventing the wheel and coming up with bizarre solutions
