high IQ

the ability to explain complex subjects in concise and easily understandable terms

Their code throws too many exceptions.

The ability to communicate complex ideas in simple terms AND write up the code. If you can only do one or the other you're worthless.

exceptional programs

Being able to use every paradigm effectively.

not requiring any abstractions

a good solid upbringing

the ability to disconnect from social media

either one of those abilities is valuable

being able to handle abstractions and abstract concepts isn't a thing you'll see a codemonkey do
t. helped countless codemonkeys

Ability to make sense of the ever changing overly convoluted devops environment

Very good insight at the end.

This. End of the day your programming skill depends entirely on your IQ.

this man is one

The exceptional programmer is able to reason about the implementations of things.

A programmer that can come out with simple solutions for complex problems.
Any technical answer stems from this.

this. you can become a good programmer with an average IQ, sure, but true excellence is inborn.

all debugging statements need to have "nigger" in them

# excellent question

WHO ARE YOU QUOTING????

>What makes an exceptional programmer?
Not being a frogposter.

I hope it was anime thread. I hate anime.

It would be nice to see exceptional programmers actually working instead of just seeing the stuff they produce

being a lispfag

Being white is a good start.

Passion. The only people that are exceptional at programming are people who truly love it.

i don't get it how did he improve the switch statement ?
