    only if the definition of success excludes having a stable, well paying position working for someone. I wrote some websites for fun at the age of 13, got into Linux at 12 but does anyone care? No, because that’s not commercial experience and that’s what matters in the world of job postings written mostly by non-technical people.

      Yeah, that’s totally exactly what I was saying, thanks for being charitable in your interpretations.

      People who do what I suggest are very interested and driven, and will pursue a career in these fields.
