Looking at the GitHub[1] or LinkedIn[2] pages for the repository author on this project is a good reminder-to-self (for me, at least) both that: - time and dedication/enthusiasm can enable some pretty great things in a whole range of different circumstances [+] - there are a lot of interesting opportunities for work (and people doing interesting things) out there in the world than that which is readily talked about [1]: https://github.com/audreyt https://github.com/audreyt [2]: http://www.linkedin.com/in/tangaudrey http://www.linkedin.com/in/tangaudrey [+]: some would at this point say 'and so we should not pre-judge' - pre-judging can be a helpful general-purpose heuristic, though - more useful advice might be to avoid 'final judgement' of anyone

  "So we created webworker-threads, a cross-platform implementation of the Web Worker API for Node.js." The AOSA article is a great read. Further, the result of that EtherCalc work is one of the coolest projects around- an implementation of Web Workers for Node.js using native threading: "This module provides an asynchronous, evented and/or continuation passing style API for moving blocking/longish CPU-bound tasks out of Node's event loop to JavaScript threads that run in parallel in the background and that use all the available CPU cores automatically; all from within a single Node process." https://github.com/audreyt/node-webworker-threads https://github.com/audreyt/node-webworker-threads

Just read the following snippet from her Linkedin Profile. "I'm entirely self-educated, having quit the school system at 14." Kudos on achieving so much!
