I think I took the metaphor more to heart than others. I like to think of myself as a good storyteller. I can explain pretty in depth computer science topics to my business team who lack technical knowledge pretty well through stories. My problem seems to be translating this to software structures.
I wish I could be as good of a "writer" in my software, but I am always looking to others for the best practices. In this case, I am always in a constant state of doubt and "writers block", I need to figure out how to unleash my own creativity.
Based on the other usages in the article, it looks like some kind of link syntax like in markdown or wikitext, but it isn't being parsed/replaced. If so, then it just means "counterintuitive."
LOL I am the author and I didn't know what that comment meant when I saw it above!! Derp and I will go fix my broken links now :) Thanks for the heads up!
