Working on finishing his CS degree and going into a PhD program after picking himself up out of addiction. He's astoundingly brilliant but has always struggled with...just about everything else that doesn't involve a computer. But definitely the most talented mind I've ever been around.
They recently burned out working at Amazon and haven't really done anything since. But before the burnout they were by far the most impressive developer I've ever met.
He's working at Google, still in my home country. We were the computer geniuses of our 5th grade.
I ended up moving to Europe and working for lower tier companies and now at 36, get laid off left and right as the economy here sucks + my bad luck :-(
