Sam Gentile opens a can of you know what on Steve Yegge:

I'd like to emphasize the not software part especially in light of Googler Steve Yegge's Ridiculous post who sprouted off for pages against Agile. He didn't know a thing about Agile which showed in his post - almost nothing he said was correct or substantiated. He glorified a cowboy egocentric coding style that is thankfully long gone from most companies. You get to do that when YOU DON'T BUILD REAL SOFTWARE and build glorified web sites that sell advertising that say "whoops" all the time. At least I know one company I'll never work for.
