> While it is great that we recognize good work like this, bringing up his age in the title is focusing on a pretty irrelevant It's relevant because it's remarkable and it puts the author in a much smaller circle than he would be if he were older. Trying to pretend otherwise is silly. Being able to read at age 18 is a lot less interesting than at age 4. Same goes for rare technical feats (and writing an OS is such a thing, most developers wouldn't be able to pull it off, so doing so at age 13 is certainly a lot more interesting than when you're older).
