Nearly a decade ago, AOL cofounder Steve Case was at a conference when a promising young entrepreneur "sheepishly" approached him to share how Case had unintentionally helped turn him into a coder.
As Case recalled in a recent interview, the man approached him and said: "I just want you to know that I learned to program when I was 13-years-old by hacking into the AIM system."
