I too started on C64! Though in my case it was as late as '92 when a seven year young kid got an already old C64 with cassette player, a manual, and no games. Sometimes one gotta make ones own fun, literally.
A classic nerd from Norway.

Technology@beehaw.org•Cory Doctorow: The ‘Enshittification’ of [internet platforms like] TikTokEnglish
5·3 years agoPast two decades, you mean? (I’m still mad about the crowd choosing MSN Messenger over open protocol chat programs back in '00)
Blades in the Dark looks cool.
Hi, im a redditor. Probably won’t be for long though.
Im a c# and typescript developer, computer enthusiast, avid book and comic reader, and a fantasy and scifi fan. Im very introverted and agoraphobic, unskilled at social stuff, badly overweight and less-than-optimally-active, and just started on anti-depressants. Other than that im an utterly boring person.

Thats what I thought before. Also what I thought about the US President. Theres supposed to be policies and paper and some kind of sane middlemen between the crazy top people and the company or country. That in the end the boards or parties would at least steer it in the relatively profitable direction despite a crazy guy at the helm.
Naive of me.

What kind of dev don’t I do? At work we are building a webapp for making exercise programs. I’m working with C# and VB (both .net framework and .net 7), Typescript (frontend), Javascript (EmberJs mostly), some PHP (our old CRM system), Azure and MySQL administration, Azure VM Windows and Linux administration, and devops. So very much fullstack. Its a small company so it used to be only me and the CTO doing dev. Luckily we’ve gotten more good developers the last few years and now we’re 7 devs.
Private I’m doing powershell stuff. Sometimes typescript stuff. I used to do a bit of gamedev but not much anymore.
