A couple of years ago I read an article on Habré (it seems like a translation) about why the productivity of some programmers is ten times higher than the average. The author reduced everything to that. that good programmers choose the right tasks that bring a lot of "profit". As an example, he cited some problem from his youth. Something related to different platforms, how he fought for almost a year to cross-compile something somewhere, and in the end all this was thrown out as unnecessary.
I really want to find a link, but I just can not find the right query.

A good programmer is someone who can find an effective solution to a given problem. And what you write about is a classic careerist-fraudster from programming.
