It's just less socially acceptable to say it out loud, doesn't make it any less true. If anything, 10 is a conservative estimation: the spectrum spans orders of magnitude.

Not mutually exclusive. Prima donna behavior is always inexcusable. If you can't work with others you're not 10x, you're 0x.
- cnlap 5y agoStrange that always the 10x is blamed for communication issues. The passive aggressive 1x, who try to undermine him, are a group and as such always right. I haven't seen a true 10x who was still writing code and growing the team. Time does not permit that, it is a fantasy. There are team growing "10x" engineers who shamelessly take the credit for everything.
