Is this term "Voodoo programmers" your invention?

That is fun. I call them the alchemist for the same reason. An alchemist don't do real magic. An alchemist combine products to create spells or a potions. Most of the time he only read precipices in a book. But for me an alchemist is not a bad programmer. He can be very good in his craft. He just prefer combine thinks than creating things.

And yes today most companies prefer Alchemists or Voodoo programmers

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
