Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. ~ Leonardo da Vinci

I discovered computing in high school in 1974.

My first program was a Turing machine adder, I ran it by hand with paper tape, pen and eraser.

I started programming in 1976 on a Honeywell Bull GE-58 mini computer with a 6 digit display, 10000 octets of ferrite core memory and a couple of 2.3 MB hard drives. It needed 15kW of electrical power. I still remember the Hollerith code for punching cards manually or with the Pelerod keypunch, programmed in GESAL and disassembled machine code directly from printed hex dumps.

I have since written millions of lines of code, mostly in C, but also in a large variety of languages.
