there are no 10x engineers. there are:
- engineers who inherited good codebases
- engineers who work 80 hours
- engineers whove been at the company for 5 years (context is the real 10x)
- engineers who are good at self-promotion
- engineers who got lucky with a visible project
stop comparing yourself to a myth

hard disagree. ive worked with genuine 10x engineers. they see the problem differently. they write code that prevents 10 other engineers from having to write code

agree with OP. the "10x engineer" myth is used by companies to justify paying 1 person instead of hiring 3

context advantage is the real 10x and nobody talks about it
