This comment reminds me of one of my glorious college lessons in programming on a lit processor called 68K. I still enjoy reading about DMA and stuff.

There was a time where the whole (point & click) OS and programs fitted in one or two Megabyte RAM ... Interestingly enough, it seemed more responsive at that time than software nowadays with thousand times more memory and processing power. Ps: my portrait is outdated ;)

I used spinning laser data to install my OS while listening to snow patrols first album, JavaScript Arrays only had filter and forEach methods at the time, and I used to buy magazines to learn about jQuery.
Yes I'm dusty but not rusty yet

Good point! :D ...on the other hand, it was already flat design! After all it's quite hard to make shades and shadows with monochrome! ;)

...and notice the disk capacity :P

I longingly read about sprite graphics in the C64 Basic manual but was too young to make sense of it. I made my first website in Macromedia Dreamweaver. But I first learned to explain what a function does at a time when one of the first things you did as a beginner programmer was to activate the 'air-bnb' linting rules.

The first time I installed linux, I downloaded slackware on to 15 floppy disks over a dial-up modem. That distro installed linux version 1.0.2 but I built and upgraded to the latest kernel 1.0.9.

Type cross hatch, type some numbers, hit enter. Pray it looked how you wanted and then print.

My exposure to html consisted of Microsoft front page express.
