Agree 100%. The OP has probably written this because of the 14 year old who developed an app (was on HN earlier). I found it so inspiring. Developing anything, especially apps, I imagine is not easy - I applaud anyone who can do it but the fact the person did it at such a young age was so impressive and made me think 'wow, if a 14 year old can do this then so can I, I should learn'. If these types of posts piss you off so much, just ignore it. Half the time it is as though some on HN think they are forced to read every post. You're not. If you know something is going to piss you off, ignore it and read something else - there are plenty of articles to choose from.
