        He also didn’t invent a programming language.

      I think there’s a personality anti-correlation that keeps this mostly exclusive.

      Serial killers tend to be more outgoing and active (to a troubling degree), whereas coders who create their own languages tend to be indoors types who don’t mind sitting in one place for long periods.

      I mean there are plenty of psychologies that could make for someone who does both, but it would seem to reduce the odds a lot.

        Yeah, I guess a competent programmer would rather go for paralllel killing.

    8 / 10.

    But it wasn’t fair. I actually met Guido at a PyCon conference.

    I almost got 2 out of 10 if it wasn’t for the COBOL and PYTHON devs

    I scored 8/10, but I should get a pass for guessing the inventor of python is a serial killer.

    The more unkempt and dishevelled they look, the more likely they are to be a language inventor.
