I've worked with hundreds of average (professional) developers over the years, and I've only met 1 person who was a 3x developer. I've met several 2x developers and lots of 1.5x developers. I assume a 5x developer exists, but I doubt a 10x does.

When your baseline is 0.1x developers, a normal developer can be a 10x developer.

  My baseline is the average.

  The baseline is 1x, that's what 1x means. i.e. Your regular professional career developer who does good solid work and is always rated "Meets all expectations". That's the 1x.
