Written in PHP no less... Zuckerburg is nothing like Woz in terms of technical knowledge, acumen and ability. The comparision is almost an insult.

Nowhere in my post did I compare their projects. I compared their age. And there’s nothing wrong with using PHP as a framework for your website. Mediawiki is written in PHP and Wikimedia’s websites (including Wikipedia) run on Mediawiki. Just because a language is bad doesn’t mean the projects written in them are bad. Also, AFAIK, Facebook doesn’t run on PHP anymore.

I think everybody's acting offended because you're comparing their ages when they made something successful, not what they made.
The what is a huge nuance, I personally think Zuckerberg would be able to create a device like this at this point in time.
While you were just comparing ages you accidentally bundled achievements and that's a big no no.
