Sure, I don't know if they were "born" smarter. At least one of these people, I got to witness up-close his methodological approach to all his coding work. I don't know if the rest had a specific technique or not. All I know: these guys were all insanely fast, and only very rarely made any coding errors.
- philosopher1234 5y agoI agree with you there. There are certainly much faster, much more dedicated workers. My irritation is with: 1. All the hero worship 2. This idea that they are unreachably superior to everyone else
- khazhoux 5y agoI guess I don't see the hero worship. Mention "10x Engineer" around here and people become furious. Unreachably superior? Well, I'll never be as good as these guys I'm thinking of, and probably not even if I doubled down on sharpening my craft. There's lots of factors for that. Maybe they picked up better habits early, maybe I need to drop dumb hobbies. Or maybe, they're just clearer thinkers. Who knows, but I'm OK with it.
