This guy is 25 and all "woe-is-me" about this incredibly productive life he's lived so far? Jeez. I'm not taking away from the difficulties of living with a felony record in the United States; the system is rigged against people with a record.

But he's not exactly the right person to garner sympathy when he's made hundreds of thousands of dollars and has nothing but a fruitful career ahead of him despite his criminal record.

And make no mistake, sympathy is what he wants for publicly posting this ridiculous article.

Also, stop acting like you're smarter than everyone else. Humility is a virtue in this industry. Those skills you have today might be completely useless in 5-10 years, you always have to be innovating yourself if you want to have a long successful career in tech.
