>Avdi's overanalyzing it. Everybody's simply using the word to mean `enthusiastic` these days.
He may indeed be "overanalyzing" it. But a lot of developers to that. How many people have to agree with you on a subjective matter before "overanalyzing" becomes "seeing the obvious?"
Developers and their hysterics, I tell you! Why, the simple creatures are simply unfit for the business world at large! Hush dear, you've been overanalyzing again.
The problem with "passionate" is that it's a leap of faith for the developer to make, that the company hasn't earned. What if they come in, "passionately" develop the product with no thought of personal health or career risk, and then see the company shed it when it becomes advantageous to do so? Passion, it seems, only flows one way.
