I appear to be in something of a minority here, but I don't see what this has to do with Linux or LWN. I can see why it's of personal interest to our editor, and the article was OK as this guy seems more interesting than your average joe, but I do think the frontpage of LWN should remain essentially on-topic, and this article wasn't.
Call me a miserable curmudgeon if you like, but I thought it should be said.
