Thought about the second question a bit more and list the stuffs that geniuely made me happy recently:
Reading the book "The Soul of New Machine", led me to complete all labs of hardware part of nand2tetris except the final one (yeah the most important one).
Watching the youtube channel "outdoor boys" makes me really happy and I went back to it from time to time.
- PaulHoule 3y ago"Soul of a New Machine" is such a funny book looking back because people were really impressed with it at the time, and it's a good book, but the "New Machine" that it was about went nowhere at all in the marketplace. In fact, that whole style of minicomputer development went extinct in the next few years. (I remember people being so excited about the Digital VAX, my high school got one to replace our awful PDP-8, pretty soon though people were boasting that their 386 machine was x faster than a VAX 11/780, and that was the last you heard of the VAX)
