It's interesting to see the kind of heroes these guys have. Wonder if that is general for their generation.



General as in "shared by everyone" or as in "shared among geeks/nerds/people that are into development"?

Also interesting is their education, it's making it obvious that we are moving away from universities (although the sample isn't in any way big enough we can get the hint, I guess)


Well, I'm 15, and my "idols" would be people such as Knuth, Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie. Then again, I'm more into systems programming.
