that people called "code monkeys", not "programmers". it's simply 
impossible to be a programmer without a passion to learn things. not 
'cause "well, if i learn XYZ i will be promoted to better job and will 
get more money", but 'cause "hey, that's *interesting*! i may never use 
that in my job (this is usually wrong), but it's so interesting that i 
can't pass it by!"

code monkeys are good when there is a need in writing boilerplate code, 
but they are bad for solving problems. not necessarily 'cause they're 
dumb, they simply not interested in problem solving.
