I have this t-shirt:
On my hard drive are all episodes of the 1980's cartoon "He-man and the masters of the Universe".... and also, of course, the Thundercats!
I remember programming BASIC on the spectrum... it was just following instructions from the book, but still programming!
Now, I do IDL, python and C/C++... trying to forget JAVA...
And.... I actually have a college degree on physics and technology.
Also, working in Nuclear Fusion.
In the meantime, I've taught my kids to play Mahjong (not that sissy solitaire one... the 4-player one with classical chinese rules). There's a computer version here: http://mahjong.julianbradfield.org/ (it supports networked players... anyone interested?)
Readings under this belt
- Pale Blue dot
- 2001, a space odyssey
- 2010, odyssey two
- Solaris
- The Martian
- Song of ice and fire
- Lord of the Rings & the Hobbit
-- National Geographic subscriber since 1999
Movies... lots.
