I’ve know several programmers who I would consider to be 10X.

You get an X multiplier when you have a lot of experience with the programming language.

You get an X multiplier when you’ve built lots of similar things.

You get an X multiplier when you understand related technologies in depth.

You get an X multiplier when you really understand how the computer works.

You get an X multiplier when you really understand the operating system.

You get an X multiplier when your damn smart.

You get an X multiplier when you’re organized and systematic.

You get an X multiplier when you know how to solve problems quickly.

You get an X multiplier when you work hard.

You get an X multiplier when you’re creative and can “see” systems in your head.

You get an X multiplier when you’re happy an motivated.

Comically, this comes to the total of 11X, which is about as helpful in describing a person as every one of the described points in isolation.
