Software engineer Charity Majors challenges the "10x engineer" myth, arguing that true productivity lies in team performance, not individual brilliance. She encourages building workplaces where "normal" engineers can thrive. Are we focusing too much on hiring "the best" instead of the right people?

    No, I’ve never heard anyone use that term to refer to themselves. I just don’t know a lot of arrogant assholes though.

        I mean anyone who labels themselves as top talent or alpha or whatever, is generally full of it if you ask me.
