Was there some sort of ceremony? Or did you forget to tell your boss to stop being weird when they called you a rockstar dev for the first time?

Did you have to change your haircut and dress differently?

Do rockstar developers come with a rider? "Colemak keyboard with Cherry MX reds, apart from the spacebar which should be brown."

Haha, no ceremony. And to be honest I was never called a rockstar, at least to my face. But what the article presents is what I think has been my experience over the years.

I still dress like an idiot... older people dress nicer, younger kids dress cooler, and I don't have a pony tail, so I can't even claim that.... :D

Any Windows keyboard will do, I can't believe Macs don't have a context menu button! When I get back to Mac (from Bootcamp) I'll try to learn the Mac way.

TBH I'm with you on the context menu thing - I miss it too.
