The switching costs alone would eat half your day, and of course they're hoping to get much more than 1/10th of a developer despite only paying for 1/10th of one.

So if you're a 10X developer, and switching jobs will eat up half your time... you could take 5 jobs and provide 1 developer's worth of skill to each, right?

Until Fred Brooks shows up and slaps you.

Brooks slapped everyone decades ago and it's still ringing in all of ours' ears.
