Good insights, and not just software developers, really. We don’t like ads, sensationalism, or anything reeking of bullshit. If we have to talk to someone to find out the price, the product may as well not exist.

I love your insights, thanks for commenting. I'd just note that in some cases the word "nerd" has grown to mean just about anyone with competence or expertise due to their intrinsic interest & enthusiasm for the subject area. So maybe becoming an "equestrian nerd" or a "construction nerd" makes you immune to overbroad marketing claims in those areas!
