      Bell curves don’t work to make this point. A bell curve is symmetrical, so half of developers will always be below average on a bell curve. But yes, it is true that for other types of distributions, more or less than half of the developers could be below average. What the person above you was looking for, in the general case, would be the median.

      The mean is in the center of the bell curve, so I’m not sure what your point is.
