Culture clash on the platform
Joel Spolsky, of "Joel on Software" fame has posted a new essay called "Biculturalism", which is a review of the book The Art of Unix Programming by Eric S. Raymond. (If you prefer bits to atoms, you can read the whole book online for free, Eric being a famous Open Source advocate.)
[One digression: Follow that link to the book above. You will find yourself on a great website for books: Amazon Lite. It's Amazon without all the noisy fluff, and is where I go first now to buy books. Very sweet.]
Joel is a pretty isightful guy, and I've spent too many hours browsing his essays, and I recommend it to you as well. This review has some problems (as I note in my Artima blog), but I like it anyway.
