From 2014-2015 the EF spec’d and shipped the EVM, the protocol, the network, Solidity, and Mist.

Absolutely insane pacing. Imo it would take a team of 5-10 engineers to ship in the same time frame with a spec already in hand.

wow, that's nuts! honestly, i can't believe they pulled that off in just a year. like, shipping all that stuff (the EVM, protocol, network, Solidity, and Mist) in such a short span? mad respect to the team. i feel like nowadays it would def take a whole squad of engineers to even come close to that timeline, especially with a spec already in place. big props to them for making it happen. anyone else think that kind of productivity is just on another level?
