Hey, I'm chasing that early computing life I wasn't able to have myself and was fascinated by, and ultimately what got me into computing and keeps me in computing.
Not ashamed to admit it.
- Working on learning to code #C64 assembly and #8BitComputing in general.
- Working on learning exactly all a #BBS actually is and coding one.
- Reusing existing skillsets for coding/sysadmin/dba/hacker for it, but in this origin story #nostalgia I never got in its entirety.
I saw a tape deck at a 2nd hand store the other day and was reminded of a math teacher showing me it could be used for data storage with computers.
I also feel fortunate that at this stage in my life I'm secure in my career (as much as I can be anyway), so I can relax a little on the hustle of skill improvement solely for work and all that.
