Hey man quit with the self pity and keep doing your thing. Forget about what everyone else is saying and just keep honing your craft, you're leagues ahead of any other high schoolers your age.
Why do I feel like that is sarcastic? But anyway thanks for the comment.

You come off as extremely pretentious and arrogant in this blog post. HN is normally quite supportive of younger developers, but if they act and present themselves in the manner you do then can't expect anyone's opinion of you to do anything but plummet. The design I have seen on your porfolio at http://5lin.es/portfolio/ is kinda ok but very samey and in no way entitles you to feel as though you are better than anyb…
That's not exactly MY portfolio. I only helped a little with a handful of those sites.

#54I'm a fool and this should be taken as self expression. Don't take this as me hating on anyone. I'm an idiot for posting this.

#55This is satire. It has to be. Right?

#56It's funny how Dreamweaver got such a reputation, but I wonder if in this case the blank looks he was getting was because he still thinks Dreamweaver is for for point-and-click build my first website designers.
Edit: What made me change away from DW was a persistent memory leak that was unfixable/unbearable.

#58The essay is riddled with mispellings and tense shifts, it is horribly arrogant, and it doesn't really serve any purpose other than to whine about this guy's failure. Like another poster said, the kid will regret it later in life. Please don't comment anymore, you'll only embarass him.
Yeah, he's super cocky and arrogant. But he is only in high school. I can remember, oh, 1 or 2 kids who thought they owned the school back when I was somewhere around there. The good news is, he has a lot of life left, and plenty of time to mature. Putting out this little article will I think help him head him down that path. Good luck Eugene - keep improving yourself.

#59So, maybe I have too much faith in people here, but I think this post is satire. While it's an extreme example, the attitude the author espouses- that there is one right way to do things and anyone doing otherwise is an idiot -is definitely not unheard. Hell, I've been plenty guilty of it myself, looking down my nose at someone using Eclipse as I struggle to remember 8 button long Emacs shortcuts.

You must be soft.
You've got an appallingly pungent stench of douchiness about you. I think he's right — just by reading the way you write, I can tell you're too full of yourself to even fathom the concept of working well with others.
