I imagine most 10x developers just have their life together as a whole and that's what allows them to be so productive.

So many developers I see are overweight, drink alcohol often, play video games until 2AM and then sleep 5 hours, no exercise at all, bad diet, porn addiction.

By having such a bad lifestyle they are really low energy and tend to go into "autopilot" which of course translates to worse output at the job.

I don't see a causation here, those things aren't specific to tech, and are in fact fairly common in other areas of work as well.
Yes, and I bet there are 10x employees in all other areas of work as well.
Meow :-) What happened to being civil
I don't see the issue as the statement is not targeted at any single person, just a generalization.
Doesn't work like that though does it
