Which brings me to the point of this post: You can't pay your bills with craft beers.
Especially if you work as a remote worker :D
I hope no one uses "Rockstar developer" (which actually means "young white male with no interests outside of binge programming") any more but I wouldn't be surprised if some companies still do
I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
One of the agencies I worked for used to put out ads like that, and they got the recruitment agency treatment to turn them into, well, "my client, a fast-growing up-and-coming city-centre cool fortune-9000 forward-thinking company" sort of thing. Their use of the phrase "rock star" used to get us a lot of applications from people thinking we were Rockstar, whose offices were around the corner. Pointless.

Haha right! It's less common now, but I still see it every now and then!
