barsoap,

The FLOSS community is full of ITs (no pun intended) regardless of N so no, probably not. Let me see. In a software company:

  • ISTJs are the guys dressing like civil engineers. They’re generally busy quietly doing work – especially maintenance, for which everyone would be thankful if they knew maintenance is being done. They generally keep out of banter but occasionally drop an absolute nuke, upon which people remember that they exist.
  • INTJs are easy to spot: They’re the ones wearing all black in an attempt to not draw attention to themselves. Yes you heard it here facts don’t care about your intentions.
  • INTPs look somewhat lost (as usual). Most common position within the team is mathematical oracle.
  • ISTPs like me make sure that you nerds aren’t feeling sorry for yourselves. We mostly do that passively: Other introverts think we’re extroverts and therefore cool.

Then, bonus introverts:

  • ISFP is a very capable coder as long as it’s graphics or sound programming. Indispensable at every game studio, also excellent UX/UI devs. Like ISTP, often gets confused for an extrovert because of all that pazazz.
  • INFPs do exist. Kind of elusive how that works but e.g. Linus Thorvalds is one.
  • INFJs would be capable, but just aren’t interested, they rather become teachers. You may be able to obtain one by promising TED talk opportunities.
  • ISFJ is not actually a programmer but feels very included doing the payroll and making sure there’s enough coffee in the pantry. And making sure INTP eats something else but buttered noodles once in a while.
