What a weird and frankly pissy response. I think all that means is that he didn't get a near-complete design from some other source and stick it in a shiny box and put a sticker on it calling it the Jacksotron so something and declare that he "built it". It's quite the Festival of Debunking a 12 Year Old Kid going here on Hacker News, and it's embarrassingly transparent. Yes, you're all very smart too.
