"It's a bit of social engineering that's hardly on par with a Steve Jobs
keynote. But for a hairy software coder, it's pretty slick."
Yeah, the old hairy coder gambit is a sure sign of stupidity or
trolling.
The only guy with long hair (but he has no beard) in our building is a
Microsoft-ony guy. So much for stereotypes.
Short hairs:
Linux Torvalds
Andrew Morton
Robert Love
Doc Searls
...
The only Linux0long-hairs I recall seeing are Stallman and "Maddog" Hall.
