- magpi3 5y agoLiterally why I took my first CS course. I just had to know how computers worked. Pure curiosity drove me. Loved Jeff's book on x86 assembly back in the day. I still remember him (in the book) introducing a DOS interrupt that I could invoke I think through DEBUG that rebooted the computer. And in the text he says something like that: that's the feeling of power. And he was right, that was exactly how I felt.
