The author of this blog was born in the year of Atari‘s founding and the release of the game Pong. Since his early youth he started taking things apart to see how they work. He couldn’t even pass construction sites without looking for electrical wires that might seem interesting. The interest in computing began when his grandfather bought him a 4-bit microcontroller with 256 byte RAM and a 4096 byte operating system, forcing him to learn Texas Instruments TMS 1600 assembler before any other programming language. Few things have changed. Discuss.
