The Seven Deadly Sins in Code

Filed under: Development, Google — anton @ 10:44 am
  1. Sloth | Laziness about 58,600.
  2. Greed about 24,400.
  3. Wrath | Anger about 12,300.
  4. Pride about 12,200.
  5. Gluttony about 400.
  6. Envy about 200.
  7. Lust about 100.

I prefixed each sin with \s to ensure I don’t match partial world like danger for anger. So from these numbers we can assume that developers are lazy, greedy and proud. This seems to fit well with my experiences as a developer. I was somewhat surprised to see lust in the bottom of the list, expecting it to be near the middle somewhere.
