No, he's right. It's more than simply semantics. A better title would be "an extremely overwhelming of programmers don't need to know THIS much about memory"

Or perhaps some more positive phrasings:
- If you know this much about memory, you'll know more than 99% of programmers.
- What 99% of programmers don't know about memory.

The second one reads like a Buzzfeed article...

This is what people says when they have a dataset of 100 entries(<100mb) on their developpment laptop.
How funny they look when production guys show them how their lame piece of code doesn't scale up with billion of entries in the production platform...But they dont care cause they are developpers, (or so called). Until the production guy rewrite their code and have them fired for incompetence (true story).

Why did the production guy even need them in the first place? Why were they hired?
