From the "Programmer's Brain" title, I was expecting something else.

It seems this might better be titled "How to think like a programmer", or "Skills programmers need to know" or somesuch.

I was thinking this was going to be about what programming (for a long time) does to your brain - how a programmer's brain works, and how that is different from how non-programmers think (about life in general). I used to joke that programming is a disease, not a career...

The full title is:

The Programmer’s Brain: What every programmer needs to know about cognition
