HN is a spark plug that caused various forward motions and explosions in my life.
I learned about open source and Linux; in time that went from a new hobby to a change of direction in my career.
I learned about startups, and figured I should try since I'm also a genius who can build a great product. It took quite a bit of money and time lost to convince me otherwise.
I found out about the online CS Masters program at Georgia Tech and did that a few years ago, this led to moving countries and getting a job doing AI.
