At first I thought no it must be lognormal since productivity must be at least marginally more than zero, but then I realized that's definitely not true: I know developers who definitely have negative net productivity on the team.

The -0.5x developer is not a myth.

As a 1/10th developer, I can confirm that net negative devs exist.
