nvidia mining and computer scientists with colds

[Knarlomatic]

I came across and interesting article I'd like to call everyone's attention to:

Briefly profitable alt-coin mining on Amazon through better code

http://da-data.blogspot.com/2013/12/briefly-profitable-alt-coin-mining-on.html

a quote:

"This is apparently what happens when computer scientists spend four weeks sick and have to keep themselves from going stir crazy."

A computer scientist gets a cold and spends his sick days writing code to increase the hashrate of nvidia gpus. 

He also has some interesting theories about Litecoin, cloud mining, and cryptocoin price fluctuations.

Intresting...

Interesting read, what we need is real implementation of better programmes in new nVidia drivers so that existing users can make use of their GPUs and we expect a healthy competition for across the border from these Green guys.

Part 2 is posted:

Inside a better CUDA-based scrypt miner

Can any miner/Nvidia developer comment on the theories expressed here?  Will these indeed create a better miner?  Will these be of interest to Nvidia miners?  Could any of these theories be of any other interest?

Or is this guy off his rocker?
