What if your IDE had an achievement system?
I would honestly develop 10 times longer and compete with my friends. If the industry want to boost productivity they would most definitely start working on this IDE. Then you can compare and hire developers based on their achievements as a function of what they had produced as supposed to what they claim to have done.

Here are a few I thought of:
- The Untouchable – Define a 1000 private class variables!
- The No Lifer — Maintain an active IDE window for 24 hours!
- The Confuser — Write a method with over 1000 lines no comments.
An amusing idea. :)
