Who is insulting him? People are just saying that his age is not relavent to what he did, and I agree. His post should describe the project. It should be about how awesome his project is, not about how awesome he is.

If this headline was "I'm black, and I released my first NPM module" or "I'm a Republican, and I released my first NPM module" would it be appropriate?
It's as if anyone who's not 20-40, white and male needs to somehow draw attention to that fact. Shouldn't this be an inclusive community rather than one that needs to tag its members?
