> 10x longer is not a poor programmer, that's an incompetent programmer. If someone needs ten days to code something that can be done in one day something is very seriously wrong.
That's just not true, it's all relative. Linus Torvalds supposedly coded git to the point where it was self-hosted in 1 day. Even a very good programmer could take more than 10 days to do that, an average (but not incompetent) programmer could take months.
