Awesome article. I can't tell you how sick I am off job postings which say they're looking for "rock star" developers, etc. Nothing turns me of faster because as this article illustrates well, who on earth would describe themselves as a "rock star"? And would they make a good employee? I doubt it. I certainly don't want to work with people who think they're rock stars, or for people who expect me to be their subjective and imprecise definition of a rock star.
