world getting way too high tech

Just the other day, i read a post that would definitely evoke different sentiments in different people...chk it out:
prodigy kid

It's about a 9 yr old kid writing iphone applications :O.. Must be a child prodigy. Anyways we are 21 yr olds copying codes for lab assignments. That's okay..in my opinion, the guy(9 yr old) is missing out on a lot of things that normal 9 yr olds do...

"What you focus on decides what you miss". It's all a matter of choice and of course the amount of effort varies depending on what we focus.

Seriously, I'm wondering--> can a 9 yr old be passionate about programming??!

Developing such an awesome software is definitely mind blowing...frankly the kind of stuff he has done..I'm sure most of us would not even be able to imagine coding for it...even if he was an 18 yr old!
