Then wouldn't they conceivably make millions proving him wrong?

Good point.

Ready...... GO!

Wait, you mean you cant prove a negative? Like the fact that Zuckerberg cant code.

Also the election will never be proven fair.

I've seen plenty of information that shows he can code and no information he can't.

You're like my dog, hasn't been at the creek for a couple of days, and still has to piss on an old smell that no longer matters.
Is this an Obsessive Compulsive kind of thing?

Then why have you yet been unable to show us any information that he CAN code???

That would put this whole thing to rest, but you have yet to do so...

No you haven't. That's a lie.

Mark Zuckerberg is not a "programming prodigy"
...............

And Zuckerberg's peers don't place him in the uppermost tier of skilled coders, according to TopCoder, a site where coders improve and rank their skills. He's only in the third level.

How good of a programmer is Mark Zuckerberg?

...............

His peers don't place him in the uppermost tier of skilled coders. On TopCoder, a site where coders improve and rank their skills, he's only in the third level. Adam D'Angelo — the former CTO of Facebook and founder of Quora — is in the top level, "red." (The ranking goes grey, green, blue, yellow, red).
So it's likely that Mark's success is related to his personal tenacity, work ethic and creativity rather than his programming prowess.

How Mark Zuckerberg Learned to Code

....................

Mark Zuckerberg learned to code not long after he received his first computer as a sixth grader. Zuckerberg was instantly interested in coding, eventually turning to C++ for Dummies to teach himself programming.

In 2013, Zuckerberg explained his motivation. "Learning how to program didn't start off with wanting to learn all of computer science or trying to master this discipline or anything like that," Zuckerberg explained. "It started off because I wanted to do this one simple thing—I wanted to make something that was fun for myself and my sisters."

His first program, Zuckerberg relates, was a modified version of the board game Risk. "It was centered around the ancient Roman Empire," Zuckerberg said in a 2004 interview. "You played against Julius Caesar. He was good, and I was never able to win." Designing a game that even its creator couldn't beat was an exciting challenge for Zuckerberg.

Mark Zuckerberg May Not Be The Programming Whiz You Thought

Facebook is undoubtedly the most preferred social networking website for millions of users. The social media giant is now a significant part of our lives or should I say — we are living a significant part of our lives on Facebook.

However, digging up Zuckerberg's performance as a programmer revealed that he isn't the genius we believed him to be. His performance on TopCoder, a site where coders get ranked on their coding skills, is quite mediocre actually.

Mark Zuckerberg's personal challenge for 2012: Code every day

Facebook co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg has done a very minimal amount of programming since 2006. In 2012, however, he is aiming to write some code every single day.
