I feel wasted

As was I chasing random links through the web, I ran across the page(s) of this kid – Aaron Swartz. If you think the name is funky, then wait till you find out more. Here's what his website says:

Aaron Swartz is a teenage writer, coder, and hacker. He was a finalist for the ArsDigita Prize for excellence in building non-commercial web sites at the age of 13. At 14 he co-authored the RSS 1.0 specification, now used by thousands of sites to notify their readers of updates. He's a member of the W3C's RDF Core Working Group which is developing the format for the Semantic Web and Metadata Advisor to the Creative Commons. He's also the author of rss2email, xmltramp, HTML diff, and html2text.

Beat that! I feel so wasted!! I'm 22, and what have I accomplished? Nothing :-O argh!!! Anyways, this is something I keep worrying once every few months. And its good reason to kick back from self derogation and get back to doing some productive work :-)

  4. Funny source code comments
