There was a post about that in HN a while back. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26591966

I missed that back then. Interesting idea, but I'm a senior developer with 20 years of experience, and my 12 year old son is better at Factorio than I am, so I'm not so sure about this.

But it's interesting to compare his factorio style to mine. Or my factorio style to my regular programming style. They're very different.

You won't get good on the game if you don't have any aptitude to programming. But being bad at the game means nothing, and it certainly doesn't reflect any expertise, just basic aptitude.

It also only reflects one of the many tasks a developer usually does as an employee, that is creating algorithms. For a senior developer, that's probably not an apt task for differentiation, because it's quite bounded.
