How are you measuring? LOC? Semi-colons per hour? story points? If you're measuring in "dollars earned", how do you think their managers are measuring? And can they tell the difference between a 10x programmer and an 11x programmer?
- xiphias 8y agoJeff Dean is a great example of 10x (or more) developer. To really appreciate what he has done, just read what infrastructure abstractions he created that helps everybody who's working with big data.
- bdamm 8y agoThen clearly you've never met one.
- qwer 8y agoClearly... but then again I won't work at a place with any developers less than 11x.
