In a way. It's hard to stay focused; they used to say the ultimate for a CS grad was to write the Great American Compiler ( as for an English major it may have been the Great American Novel ). As per Orwell, the hardest thing anyone does is to see what's right under their nose - to stay focused and commit to the most relevant work.
