I am getting so tired of the term "10x" due to the past week. Some people use it as a synonym for "socially maladjusted" or "toxic," while others use it like "amazing developer." Just...stop.
Some people are more productive than others; it happens. Some people are toxic and destroy entire teams. It doesn't make sense to lump all different kinds of "developers we don't like" into the category of "10x" because that's not what that is. There's another comment in this thread suggesting a change to "more productive than average," which is a term I could get behind. You can't measure productivity to multiply it by any number, so please just stop.
