The ones that standout from the crowd are the ones that can communicate. Being able to work well in groups and explain what they are doing are two extremely rare qualities for developers. These qualities make them standout above all others.</summary><id>tag:addedbytes.com,2008:99415</id><published>2008-07-21T23:31:33+01:00</published><updated>2008-07-21T23:31:33Z</updated></entry><entry><title>Comment on What Makes a Great Developer?</title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.addedbytes.com/article/what-makes-a-great-developer/comments/" /><summary type="text">Comment by Lee Francis ( &lt;a href=""&gt;&lt;/a&gt; )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Really good article, hmm i would have never wanted to admit being lazy and pessimistic before. ;)</summary><id>tag:addedbytes.com,2008:97275</id><published>2008-06-30T13:42:22+01:00</published><updated>2008-06-30T13:42:22Z</updated></entry><entry><title>Comment on What Makes a Great Developer?</title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.addedbytes.com/article/what-makes-a-great-developer/comments/" /><summary type="text">Comment by Aggie Jane ( &lt;a href="http://www.pleasuremole.com"&gt;http://www.pleasuremole.com&lt;/a&gt; )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hahaha, awsome article, pessimistic :)) and under great stress too.</summary><id>tag:addedbytes.com,2008:97231</id><published>2008-06-29T16:38:24+01:00</published><updated>2008-06-29T16:38:24Z</updated></entry><entry><title>Comment on What Makes a Great Developer?</title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.addedbytes.com/article/what-makes-a-great-developer/comments/" /><summary type="text">Comment by Big Kahuna ( &lt;a href="http://blog.kaizeku.com"&gt;http://blog.kaizeku.com&lt;/a&gt; )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I agree with the lazy part, these types of people tend to simplify matters.</summary><id>tag:addedbytes.com,2008:97070</id><published>2008-06-23T04:22:29+01:00</published><updated>2008-06-23T04:22:29Z</updated></entry><entry><title>Comment on What Makes a Great Developer?</title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.addedbytes.com/article/what-makes-a-great-developer/comments/" /><summary type="text">Comment by Scott Morrison ( &lt;a href="http://www.ucdsb.on.ca"&gt;http://www.ucdsb.on.ca&lt;/a&gt; )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Funny.

&lt;br /&gt;
I was asked this question recently in an interview with a recruitment agency.   I replied Heart/passion for development but it enthused me enough to blog about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
http://leedare-plex2e.blogspot.com/2008/06/what-makes-good-software-developer.html&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I believe this must be blog 168,456 on this subject matter now.  Is this passion or obsession and is there a line between those two!!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Many thanks.&lt;br /&gt;
Lee.</summary><id>tag:addedbytes.com,2008:96646</id><published>2008-06-08T09:29:07+01:00</published><updated>2008-06-08T09:29:07Z</updated></entry><entry><title>Comment on What Makes a Great Developer?</title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.addedbytes.com/article/what-makes-a-great-developer/comments/" /><summary type="text">Comment by Dave Child ( &lt;a href="http://www.addedbytes.com"&gt;http://www.addedbytes.com&lt;/a&gt; )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;@Gratis: Yes, sometimes it's not easy to tell the difference :)</summary><id>tag:addedbytes.com,2008:96565</id><published>2008-06-05T10:35:51+01:00</published><updated>2008-06-05T10:35:51Z</updated></entry></feed>
