I'll leave it to others to make the argument for why Jungian psychology (and by extension, MBTI) is/isn't bullshit.

But since nobody has mentioned the alternative yet, the framework used by anyone in any scientific capacity is the Big Five: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Five_personality_traits

The link between programming and conscientiousness seems fairly straightforward. To fully translate Mort/Elvis/Einstein into some kind of OCEAN vector would take a little more effort.

Big 5 correlates to MBTI very closely in any case. With the exception of neuroticism.
