Six or seven weeks after I started...

What exactly were you doing for 6-7 weeks? If you know MatLab & R as well as you claim, I'm hard-pressed to believe that all you accomplished was one git commit, one git clone, and some copying and pasting.

EDIT: My point being... he was already a "maker" -- just not using web technologies.

Nowhere did he say that was all he accomplished, and whether it was or not seems beside the point.

He says he's an analyst. Presumably he was looking at data.
