excerpt:
While Bankman-Fried’s parents are Stanford law professors, Ellison’s mother and father are economics professors at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Her father, who wrote math textbooks for kids, got her into math at a young age. She read a lot, too, tackling a thick Harry Potter book when she was just 5, because she was too impatient to wait for her parents to read it to her, she said.

Big friggen deal. I read the Lord of the Rings at 7 and 8. I read children’s books like Harry Potter at 5 too. A ‘big book’ with lots of pages... Scary.
