Looking for article on programmer culture

Sometime in the past year I read an article online that described the 
dysfunctional culture that many programmers work in. The gist of the 
article is that programmers are loathe to impose hierarchies or to 
criticize each other, preferring more passive-agressive techniques 
and competition that at least appears good-natured. I may not be 
describing the article very well but I remember thinking it was very 
right on some points when I read it.

If anyone recognizes the article I'm trying to find and knows where I 
can find it, please post or send an email. Thanks!
