He's already successful and rich yet still programs and works on stuff for fun. Meanwhile /g/ is concerned with what programming language to learn and which GPU company is better while living in their parent's basement.

He deserves to be smug.

If the video game industry was itself a game, his name would be on the top 10 leaderboard.

He knows he had a successful life.

The garage company he started became a successful and influential game developer and went to shit as soon as he left it.
He did it for his own pleasure, like a true programming autist he is, he stood with the Foss community by releasing all his game engines under free licenses.

I'd be smug too tbh.

I've had no problem with success thanks to /g/'s book recommendations. Maybe you're just lazy.

He's also breeding his two half-asian sons to claim the throne when he is gone.
