I built a computer and soldered a cpu to a gpu to save space, then integrated the ram into the mb and created a hybrid drive to fit the entire computer into phone, and then used quantum binary to overclock it

he's probably just nervous so he's saying awkward shit but, where is the original interview?

the original is even worse.
"So how did you learn this stuff?"
"The clock was easy, it took 10 or 20 minutes to make. I make much more complicated stuff."
'Oh, like what!?"
"Uhh.. I build CPUs. And solder them."
I don't know why everyone assumes he's talking about building a PC, or even that he's talking about commercial-grade CPUs
He could have built part of a CPU with some basic electronics engineering knowledge. That would require soldering if he moved beyond breadboard prototyping. It doesn't have to be some 64-bit 3GHz monstrosity for it to be a CPU
If he took an electronics class or something it could feasibly have been part of his course, even if he didn't design it himself.

This, for instance, is a 4-bit CPU:
[IMG]http://www.galacticelectronics.com/Images/Pictures/4BitCPU_Board.JPG[/IMG]
Made using TTL ICs that could have been substituted for higher-level TTL ICs to make it easier. But, it was soldered together and could have been done by this kid if he had some help.

yeah I mean it's perfectly possible he did that. but it seems so unlikely when we know that his clock was just a cannibalised premade clock put into a pencilbox that looks like a small briefcase
So we're all saying he's definitely a bomber? I don't understand the controversy around this kid, like he made something, the most i've made is a meal, one... for my girlfriend

Apparently a smart Muslim is a bomber.
No wait, every Muslim is a bomber in the us /s.

He didn't MAKE anything... he gutted a clock and shoved it into a small metal briefcase. There's a video somewhere that shows the exact clock model that was used, everything, and pretty much just did what he did. He cannot back up his claims or his intelligence (hence THIS video) and not to mention... His father is a strong Anti-Islamaphobic activist... I wouldn't put it past him to try and talk his son into starting some shit for his own agenda.

or he could had a raspberry pi and soldered the connectors.
It's sad that can't tell at the moment. It would be great if indeed what you said turned out to be true.

And even though we know all this, he still got attention from the president and has internships lined up with Twitter.
That's one way to get a job I guess, it goes to show Obama is a hair-trigger away from trying to find a cause to support more than anything really.
yo kids do stupid overeager shit all the time, i'm sure none of you have ever been boastful as kids or looked back on things you did when you were young and rolled your eyes, now this poor asshole has to live with all this stuff being televised and recorded and commented on because of a shitty unforeseeable turn of events that should never have happened, it's awful
[editline]3rd October 2015[/editline]
who knows what sort of person he'll be in 10 years, maybe all this shit will just turn him into an entitled jerk, maybe he'll wish it never happened because he'll never have the luxury of being able to shrug at this stuff like normal people do

I actually agree with this as well, even though his "clock" bears extreme similarity to the public's conception of what a bomb looks like. I remember getting in trouble for bringing a magnifying glass to school when I was 7 or 8 and using it to burn leaves in the playground. the thing is, whose fault is the insane media circus that followed him? who fanned the flames? this is an event that I feel irresponsible and unaccountable idiots on social media are almost entirely to blame for
yeah like instead of gaining perspective and growing like a real person he's just being fashioned into this poster child and internalizing his own publicity and it's hard not to feel bad about the way he's being manipulated

It must be so hard for him, getting a free ride through space camp, meeting the president of the United States, getting invited to MIT and Google all for making a fake bomb likely under instruction from his father. I can only imagine how difficult his life must be.

Maybe, that kinda varies from person to person and depends a lot on how he perceived the situation. Even if he did plan this entire social media circus with his dad, he could easily think it's all justified and that he did a good thing by fighting racism or something. By all measures his life has been drastically improved by his PR stunt so I have a hard time feeling bad for him just because he might feel a little bad about his clock stunt while he's falling asleep at space camp.
tbh I'm pretty annoyed at how kids who "know how to code" or could "Solder some tech together" are somehow respected as some kind of incredible prodigy when/if they get enough attention because of it

Oh yeah the whole being accused of terrorism and getting detained by police, and prevented from seeing his parents, all over a simple project inside a pencil case was totally a walk in the park
Yo even if his father told him to make the bomb (which is a stupid conspiracy theory) the police acted abhorrently.

I'm pretty annoyed at people who need to feel smug about how they're better than high schoolers at programming or doing electronics work instead of trying to encourage them to follow their passions.

I'm confused? is this towards me? because I'm not a programmer or electrician. This has nothing to do with how "Smug" I am or anything.
I'm just saying people (or rather the media) will occasionally exaggerate how skilled they actually are and act as if they're something far more than what they are.
there are plenty of people like that however who everyone forgets about, who started out just as young as them, and they are never good enough to actually really justify being on the news over their skills.
hell, the biggest reason this pisses me off is because of the lack of any real push towards teaching younger kids more modern stuff like programming and electrical work.

Sure its a sad story. But that doesn't mean that somebody should be praised globally for talents they don't have and become stunning and brave.

There is a difference between putting a clock in a suitcase and getting some educational kit to make a LED blink.
Guess which one is actually working with electronics, guess which one requires the same skills as making a christmas present.
he would have been admirable had he only just actually done something.
A person that puts stuff in boxes should not work at NASA, he should work at a postal office or in a warehouse.

that's literally part of our curriculum lol

I'm sure this is all a ridiculous fluke
like this kid thinks he can get away with pretending to make a clock but then gets treated like shit for being a muslim
now everyone is praising him for being a child engineer and this entire time he has probably been thinking "oh shit oh shit oh shit"

oh come the fuck on, when i was in middle school me and my buddies did shit like this all the time
we made tiny railguns and shit for christ sakes, and we're not even any sort of crazy engineering prodigy's, we just were bored kids with electrical experience
