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.

"The following anonymous document claims to be written by a Facebook insider who was Mark Zuckerberg's lover from their freshman year at Harvard. "

I mean do you have any standards at all for what you consider to be a valid source?

You swallowed whole the Steele Dossier so you should frankly shut up.

You are not very good at the reading part of this whole thing.

QuoteAmerican Intelligence Media has been able to quickly verify that many of the claims insinuated in this "Zuckerberg Dossier" are true and this leads us to conclude that the document is authentic and exactly what it appears to be.

Anyone can create a site and type words onto it. What makes you think this site is stating the truth?

Zuckerberg can't.

I attribute Zuckerberg's success to
his willingness to suck up to the global corporate collective,
to largely copy what MySpace had already created,
and to promote users who toe the corporate line,
and censor users who criticize the global corporate collective.

The collective rewards his prostitution to them
with lots of funding by venture capitalists,
denial of venture capital (and access to internet infrastructure) to competitors,
and lots of advertising revenue from the collective's corporations,
and by hooking him up with talented software engineers.
