Wow. First thought: who is this guy who submits a really cool scientific result to a thing like SIGBOVIK? He could have sent this thing to a real conference! It's a thing no one has ever tried!

Then I checked out his website. The academic one. And the others.

Well, short description: "Superhero of Productivity". The list of stuff he created doesn't fit on his site. Sites. Also, see this remark of his,

One of the best things about grad school was that if you get your work done then you get to do other stuff too.

(I'm also at CS grad school, am happy if I have time to sleep, and my only productive output is... LW comments... does that count?)
