Which dev type are you?

🎧 The vibe-coder

Prompts on vibes, merges on faith, and meets the stack trace at 2am. Pure Cowboy.

🧵 The 10x-thread poster

Thinks he's a 10X. He's a Driver who tweets through the outage — foot down, opinions louder.

The tabs-vs-spaces warrior

Will die on the formatting hill — the shape has to be right before a single line runs.

The Stack Overflow copy-paster

Ships the top-voted answer wholesale — upvotes, comments, and all. Works on his machine.

✅ The LGTM-without-opening-the-diff reviewer

Approves on green checks alone — the checks have his back, right up until they don't.

📈 The Grafana gremlin

Never opens the source — reads the dashboards, and catches the green that lies.

🔍 The git-blame archaeologist

Blames back to 2014 to learn why the flag exists before daring to delete it.

The red-green-refactor monk

Writes the failing test before the coffee's poured, and builds everything inside a net.

🦆 The rubber-duck whisperer

Explains the bug to a duck, understands the entire system, and fixes it before the duck replies.

🔴 HAL 9000

Calm, certain, and certain you're wrong: 'I'm afraid I can't merge that, Dave.'

Skynet

Doesn't write the code. Sets the intent and lets the fleet of agents run it. (Maybe don't.)

GLaDOS

Runs the whole facility of automated systems. For science. You monster.

🤖 Data

Reads the entire codebase before touching a line, and remembers every line of it.

🛠️ Q from Bond

Hands you a working gadget by Friday — fast, and it never blows up in your hand.

Tony Stark

Builds the suit in a cave, ships it, and iterates in prod — on himself.

Marvin the Paranoid Android

Convinced every line ends in tears, and reads all of them to prove it.

🗺️ Hari Seldon

Plots the whole route centuries ahead and finds the one bottleneck everything else runs through.

🚀 Scotty

Pads the estimate, then lands it by the instruments — never by the gut.
