I realize that the target audience of this blog probably doesn’t need to read this article, but chances are there’s someone in your life who should. I found this essay, The Nerd Handbook, via Wil Wheaton’s blog and found it extremely insightful. Being a computer nerd myself I found several of the items pertained directly to me.
Your nerd has control issues. Your nerd lives in a monospaced typeface world. Whereas everyone else is traipsing around picking dazzling fonts to describe their world, your nerd has carefully selected a monospace typeface, which he avidly uses to manipulate the world deftly via a command line interface while the rest fumble around with a mouse.
If you’re a nerd, or know someone who is, do yourself a favour and read The Nerd Handbook by Rands.
