Alcohol itself may not raise insulin but what about the rest of your hard apple cider or miller lite?

I care as well, boring factory work makes for lame products. Creative and passionate developers create awesome products.

Is there an alternative to deviant art after this?

It's literally a walled garden. Oh the irony.

How did you not arrive at that conclusion? I guess it's normal to complete a year long Calculus sequence less than half that? Sure he says numerous time he didn't find school engaging and struggled in some ways. I for one have heard of this before where someone with a strong aptitude struggles with conventional education. Without something special, be it aptitude or hard working nature how do you suppose he got into graduate school? Luck, again? Also, did you notice he was only an undergrad for 3 years and apparently double majored.

Agreed.

True enough. Given the length of the post and how prevalent the theme of "luck" appears I still find it obnoxious. No doubt there is so much to learn in and around computers that everyone should feel humbled, but this guy should also recognize the mere mortals around him struggling even more so.

TL;DR Naturally talented, hardworking individual downplays everything he has ever done and tries to chock it all up to chance. I found this all very abrasive.

Or to at least make the author feel like he is part of the right.

I'm kinda disappointed that Jupiter is so small.
