The 4G/LTE stuff he did was amazing. We had a team of people at the extremely large network company I worked at previously who didn't get the same quality and coverage he managed.

Does he do public talks? I'd love to see him and shake his hand for many, many reasons.

I would be interested to know why, in your opinion, the team at the large company couldn't achieve the same quality.

Bellard is the sort of guy you makes you realise the 10x programmer meme is nonsense, it's really more like 100x.

God knows. Some extremely smart people but we eventually gave up on developing our own 4g stack and bought one instead.

To be fair his stack may not be as complete as the one we were aiming for, we spent a lot of time and money on the air interface.
