Ubergeek is a strange and wonderful creature. He possesses supernatural powers for retaining vast swathes of detail in his head at one time. This makes him designed for coding, a priceless gem when you need to get version 1 out the door ASAP. He is the 10x productivity guy of programming lore. However this uncanny ability to surf a vast sea of detail has a cost - Ubergeek has no need (or ability?) to construct the islands of abstraction that the more pedestrian human brain requires in order to navigate the otherwise featureless terrain. And when neither he nor others understand this fundamental difference, Ubergeek can be lethal.
