But I can tell you there is no shortage of oversellers in the programming community.
A programmer who's really a sleazy salesman at heart would jump at figuring out a fizbuzz solution on their own for the first time in their life, and would proceed to mark it as the biggest achievement in the history of mankind, make a webservice out of it, shout at the top of their lungs on social media, and would start knocking on VC doors. (hint hint: many of them actually get away with something not too different).
