I didn't think they'd take our absence at the design meetings so personally.

All the methods on this API take no parameters and return no values.

Unless you're actually a developer, it's easy to forget that code is still written by people, well some of it anyway, and that means social, political, and cultural forces of the individuals and organizations who involved inevitably have an impact on software design. That's what Conway's Law to say about it, anyhow.

Do you think that means you could predict was someone's code will look like based on their personality traits?  I wonder what INTJ code looks like, for example?

Got any guesses?
