The link for "nobody is born a better programmer" sets off my bullshit radar. > The most powerful evidence for this comes from Patitsas et al ... They examined grade distributions in introductory computing courses at a large university and found that only 5.8% were actually multimodal.[0] So people may or may not be born better programmers, the link doesn't tell us whether they are, and the most evidence they can find to support their position is that grades in 5.8% of introductory classes are multimodal, which has nothing to do with whether people are born better or worse programmers.
