#introduction Studied biology as a youth. First computer I touched was a PDP 11. Entrepreneured until I got it dot bombed out of me. Did most of the jobs there are in software development. Currently a soon to retire scrum master. Fart around with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, etc. Mostly just burning my fingers with a soldering iron. Words of wisdom, "Get off my lawn!"
@lePetomaneAncien Wow. I haven't heard "PDP 11" in about 30 years.😆

@klyons Learned BASIC and FORTRAN on it as an undergrad 50 years ago. Went to grad school and graduated to a time-shared IBM 360. Ran a lot of late night jobs when the industrial types had left for the day - time was cheaper and jobs ran faster. Talked my prof into a Trash 80 and never looked back to big iron.
@lePetomaneAncien FORTRAN was my first language (programming language). Learned on a UNIVAC mainfame computer, circa 1985.
