How did everyone get interested in software, and what do you hope to learn or build next?

My dad got me interested in computers when I was 5 years old during MS-DOS days, he showed me the command line, games, and built computers on his spare time. When I was 12 years old, I was exposed to IRC through online game matchmaking. Coded my first computer scripts on mIRC, and almost immediately knew my dream job was (and still is) to be a computer programmer. The rest is history. Took all the computer science and engineering courses, and joined the FIRST robotics team in high school, went to university for computer science, moved to San Francisco to build a career in technology.

Hope to learn more about Bitcoin and Lightning. Admittedly, I’ve understood them to only a certain degree, but convinced that they are the future of money. Excited to build on decentralization concepts like nostr. Excited that technology has advanced so rapidly, meaning more people are learning and building life-changing concepts and experiences on top of these foundations. 🤙🏼
