I think he’s in university for software development in Nepal, and it’s really touching that a milestone could go so deeply into the world. Hopefully he has a big spot for this on his resume and can find a great career in development!

I don't get why this needs a big spot in his resume, and why it should lead to a great career. A company/hiring manager that thinks being lucky to hit a magic number on some system has any relevance to work, I'd rate as very insane...

I will be really sus of someone's intelligence if they mentioned this as an achievement. It's fine as a joke, though.

I find a bit of humor in the fact that this is completely unrequited attention. There's even a chance the guy is oblivious.
