What do you think is the most important skill every programmer should posses?


Linus says:
It’s a thing I call „taste”.
I tend to judge the people I work with not by how proficient they are: some people can churn out a _lot_ of code, but more by how they react to other peoples code, and then obviously by what their own code _looks_ like, and what approaches they chose. That tells me whether they have „good taste” or not, and the thing is, a person without „good taste” often is not very good at judging other peoples code, but his own code often ends up not being wonderfully good.

There are other great questions and answers from the Olymp of our developers in Stiff's blog
