I don't like the author's attitude but I find the article at least tangential to something worth considering. Flawed communications as a social issue are larger in scope than technology alone. False equivalence is dangerous. If I was going to make an argument to support anything positive that I find in the article, I would frame it like this..

Popular presentations: coding=hacking=glamour hacking=crime=glamour

Less popular presentations: work=money=glamour creativity+work=glamour+money

Never mind the assumption that glamour is desirable. I'll just pretend that glamour represents any positive outcome, but be very strict about that being a local declaration on its' way to the garbage collector real fast.
