A colorful pyramid adapts Maslow’s hierarchy of needs for a software developer. The lowest levels are technical setup and workplace habits, while higher levels jokingly describe developer status, belonging, and being paid despite not knowing what they are doing. It is used as a reaction to programmer priorities and the absurd progression of a developer’s needs. EN: A colorful pyramid adapts Maslow’s hierarchy of needs for a software developer.
