Comment Bram Unispiring at SXSW (Score 2, Informative) 386

I saw Bram speak at SXSW last year. I know Cohen has Asperger's Syndrome, but Cohen didn't seem like he cared about anything.

He didn't care what people downloaded because mainstream music and films were a waste of time. He didn't want to talk about what should or shouldn't happen with RIAA and MPAA suits.

My favorite quote, "I don't like computers... they're really annoying to deal with... they never work right... I have to use them for work, but if I could avoid them, I would...".

This guy is a software developer with the ability to fix the things he doesn't like... but doesn't.

When asked what he did care about, he responds that he's a programmer and he likes doing "networking stuff", but when someone who helped develop the UDP standard asked what he would change, he says he doesn't care.

You can watch the interview for yourself here...
