My blog: Pragmateek

I started programming at the age of 2, built my first computer at 3, invented C++ metaprogramming at 5, graduated from MIT at 9, got my third PHD from Harvard at 11 1/2, run my first startup at 12, declined Fields Medal at 13. My favorite programming language is Malbolge. In my spare time I enjoy playing hydrocrystalophone and theremin, and fixing bugs in the Linux kernel. I'm the man behind the "Jon Skeet" bot. And I'm currently cured for serious mythomania.
