Hubris makes me sad. :(

Sorry to hear that, I was merely trying to provide a frame of reference.

I smell a proud C/C++ programmer.

Way to read something into a post.

waves ASM coder over here, we (??) asm coders can write parsing libraries that spank yours seven ways to Sunday.

That's fine and may get you a nice job at a hardware company. I don't see how it's related, though.

Does it matter? No. That's not how you "get things done (TM)".

And where did I say anything to that tune?

The point I was trying to make is the opposite: As long as you consider yourself a programmer, or worse a programmer of a particular language, you're probably not a "10x coder" [who keeps coming up with these idiotic terms anyways]. It doesn't matter whether that language is C, asm, Java or Lisp.
