Given the Master/Apprentice flavor of "The Tao of Programming", may direct those interested in David Boundy's "A Taxonomy pf Programmers", ACM SIGSOFT Software Engineering Notes vol 16 no 4 Oct 1991 pgs 23-30. For example (lifted from the original):
"The Good Programmer knows that a convenient bad design decision today will force a string of painful decisions between bad alternatives tomorrow."
"The Truly Great, World-Class Programmer doesn't write programs. He writes tools that write his programs for him."
