I also know devs who make that kind of money, but they are the exception not the norm.
I have already watched that video and 10k hours is not that much. That's just 5h a day for 5.5 years. I also can immediately recognize undefined behavior in C++, and I have at most 2 years of experience. Let me tell you for someone who has been programming for more than a decade, all the languages are the same. It's not hard to become an expert in a different langauge once you have the basics down.
Well now put in 10h a day and you are an expert in half the time. Now also consider that languages are quite similar to each other and you could become an expert in less than 10k hours. So she being an expert in more than 2 languages doesn't sound so unreasonable anymore, right?
Can I ask you what your background is in programming/computer science?
Fyi DMs on lemmy don't have the best privacy. Don't think of them as private.
But you sure like to make the big claims despite your convenient issue with providing anything to back them up. Maybe don't act like a rude gatekeeping "expert" if you aren't even willing to provide credentials.
You still don't actually have proof she doesn't know java and C++ but you don't care, apparently as long as you say it enough that is good enough for you.
I've had to use at least 5 different languages at work. Its not uncommon when you have a large, diverse, OLD codebase. We had scripts in Perl and python, my area of expertise was in Java, and most of the codebase was in C and C++.
