I'm just not convinced software is that impressive, I've seen 12 year olds write 'complex software' (at least to me), they didn't sure need a lifetime of knowledge and skill to do that.

Hello world might look complex on the wire when you think about the bits, but you didn't build any of those complexities yourself. This guy also didn't have the Internet to copy/paste from.
