Hello, I was born in 1974 in Poland. My first computer was Atari 800XL with a tape reader. I still love it very much, though it does not read my tapes anymore. I love simplicity. Designing hardware and developing software for it is my hobby. I think modern IT business is often ridiculous. People waste resources, time and effort. Humanity does not care about bits anymore. We only care about Gigabytes. I like open source, but one needs to be open-minded to make proper use of it. Low-level programming is the real thing. You need to know where you are and what you are doing to proceed further. This is what programming should always be about. Cheers mates. And good luck with your efforts to understand how things work.
