@JohnBrady @dwalbert I could talk about bootstrapping the OS on to a Heathkit H89 I guess. Or the horrors of using cassette tapes for storage on a timeshare system. But we’re gonna drive all the kids out of the room at this rate!
The long-term experience does tend to give some perspective, for sure. Also: I don’t see how anyone learns to code these days! It was easier when you could understand everything from the logic gates on up.
