- JoeAltmaier 11y agoThey're probably not all that smart. They're persistent, dedicated, hardworking. But I've seen Bill Gate's code, and its bad. Typically its B students that run the world.
- walshemj 11y agoYou know that GWbasic was developed without the hardware on a PDP and cross complied.
- dylanjermiah 11y ago>"They're persistent, dedicated, hardworking" And intelligent. Those qualities are not independent of intelligence. Gates = 1590 SAT (out of than 1600), Zuckerberg = 1590 SAT, Drew Houston = 1600 SAT, Travis Kalanick = 1580 SAT, Chris Sacca = Doing college grade math in 6th grade. Look into Steve Jurvetson, Patrick Collison, John Collison, Roelof Botha, and many more I am definitely forgetting of the top of my head. >"Typically its B students that run the world." I disagree. Any examples?

- rquantz 11y agoYou forgot to add their extreme luck. Also, don't forget Gates was born a millionaire. That makes it a lot easier to drop out of college.
