trmpakufnfeeon Show HN: I spent 6 months building a C debugger as a 17-year-old

Awesome. I wish I had this level of dedication when I was young.

I recommend you to participate in programs like Google Summer of Code, KDE Season of Code, Linux Foundation LFX, and X.org EVoC. There are some very interesting problems to solve. I wish I had known about them when I was student. Now I am working in Full time job, therefore have no time to contribute to open source.

Keep up the good work.
