Starbucks is not suggested. Coffee Bean is a requirement.

Starbucks was the Functional Spec... Coffee Bean was the Design & Implementation detail. ;)

How about:

1. Knowing that a casual coder or even a programmer isn't necessarily a developer.

A Coder, a Programmer, a Hacker, a Developer, and a Computer Scientist walk into a Venn Diagram

Ten things every developer should know:-
0) Indexes start at position zero
1) The intelligence distribution curve of the entire internet is pretty much the same as anywhere else - about half the up stuff there is total rubbish
3) Your indexes need defragmenting sometimes
2) brevity is not the same as clarity
4) your backup plan and disaster recovery plan is insufficient - disasters are messier than your plans assumed
5) No good list of ten things actually has ten things in
