A senior dev at a startup bragged he could solve any problem faster than the whole team combined.
One day the database crashed. Production was down. Everyone panicked.
The team spent 3 hours debugging.
The 10x dev? He walked in at hour two, looked at the screen for 4 minutes, typed one command, and the server came back up.
The room went silent. Jaws dropped.
"How?" someone asked.
He shrugged.
"I broke it the same way in 2019."
