Egalitarianism for it's own sake is lame and misguided: if you're sitting in a classroom, you don't want to be sitting next to people who aren't just as interested in learning as you are, because it diminshes the experience. Everyones' definition of what makes a "good" coder is going to be a little different, and everyone's a n00b at everything at some point, but what it comes down to is an interest in improvement. Some programmers show up at work, do their thing, and go home, never really thinking about their work beyond what's at the surface. Other programmers, however, actively work to improve their ability to write code, think about the projects they work on at a higher level, and possibly most importantly, seek to better understand *why* they code the way they code. Why is always the most important question; it is the key to understanding, and this is the critical differentiating factor. So in that sense, Mariano is correct: we don't want to limit ourselves to the "best" coders, but we *definitely* want to limit ourselves to those who try to be.

Yet another reason to choose Cake over and overblown CMS; thank you for making my point. > Sorry but I wont convince my managers by using your joda talk. :-) Then your managers must think very little of you and your work if you cannot even be trusted to choose your own tools. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
