  1. Camack is so fucking boss by aCapitalist · · Score: 1, Troll

    He's 35, like Linus (Linus got his masters), carmack did a semester an a half. these guys are hardcore hackers. just pure let's push the fucking envelope and getting rich at the same time.

    carmack is way beyond linus. carmack is in a world beyond himself. the dude writes engines (back in the day, before he had kids) like you wipe your ass. always writing engines to push the envelope. even sweeney considers carmack god. the dude is just a fucking machine.

    thank you john, from another 35 year old...how time flys.
