A lot of comments here are focusing on the 10x label meaning. I agree that the author wrongly suggested this applies to LOC, but these are great points for any developer:
- Use the sharpest tool in the shed (programming language, framework, etc)
- Leverage existing code
- Reflect on the problem up front before writing any code
- Relentlessly question if you really need the feature you're adding

Things like that are the reason I'm moving more towards design, architecture, and project management, because people are generally fucking awful at it.
