The author blows his own argument out of the water when he says:
> I would venture to say that really good programmers are about 10 to 20 times as effective as just average ones.
Aren't those the super ones? Or at least on that track?
But disregarding that, I'd personally say the super programmers are the ones capable of inventing git, or bitcoin. I don't care what you say, 99.9% of programmers simply couldn't do that. Saying super programmers don't exist is like saying Einstein's theory of general relativity is decomposable into easy parts.

Sorry, I don't think so.
