I have been wildly enthused about gaming since I was younger and a career path I chose not to go down but did really consider was getting into programming and game design.
Clearly programming courses should teach methods of design and construction and the selected examples should be such that a gradual development can be nicely demonstrated.
But active programming consists of the design of new programs rather than contemplation of old programs.
There were no PCs when I started programming on computers.
Yeah computers are going to take over the programming business because they have become so fast recently that they can solve the Halting Problem in five seconds flat.
What I was proud of was that I used very few parts to build a computer that could actually speak words on a screen and type words on a keyboard and run a programming language that could play games. And I did all this myself.
To devise an information processing system capable of getting along on its own - it must handle its own problems of programming bookkeeping communication and coordination with its users. It must appear to its users as a single integrated personality.
Everyday life is like programming I guess. If you love something you can put beauty into it.
Ads featuring real women and real beauty are such a necessary component to offset the potentially dangerous programming out there for little girls.
I loved logic math computer programming. I loved systems and logic approaches. And so I just figured architecture is this perfect combination.
