I'm sorry, I'm finding this a little hard to believe.

You claim these people are unconcerned with algorithms or error checking... I mean really, what do these people do all day? Stocks only take so long to check, and you can only eat so much lobster before you explode. Anyway, you admit that they have people over for dinner... but what do they talk about, if not code? Surely they don't just sit there staring at each other! Ditto for talking on the phone.

You must realize how implausible all this is. Obviously these people are secretly spending all their time on personal projects, writing video games or something.
