Matthew writes about failing software projects, and how that's all the programmer's fault. Easy blame. The way I see it, programmers are the bottom of the food chain when you're searching for a scapegoat. Go blame a sales guy: "I passed it on to the analyst, and he messed up!". The analyst: "I passed it to the architect, and he messed up!" The architect: "I passed it to the programmer, and he messed up!" The programmer: "I passed it to... eeeh... damn!"
