I know several 10x Java coders. Honestly though 10x should transcend a language...

Why would it? Suddenly having to always look up your standard library's basic functions will slow anyone down.

10x guys let the tools do the hard work, like IDE to look up standard library's basic functions.

Which language has standard library small enough that people can memorize the whole thing?
