I don't believe in 10x developers but I do believe in Edge. If you have a small edge on your competition, in software engineering, it's
possible to leverage that edge to skip things, to skip BS. It's like pushing water. You push just a little bit, and there's a little ripple in the water, and then push a little more to create a second ripple, then the second ripple combines with the first into a bigger ripple, and then that ripple grows into a wave which curls over on itself and crashes with terrible momentum.
