Kids today have it easy! I'm glad I never had to use punch cards.
Punched cards, punched tape, coding by marking formatted cards - I've done it all :-)
I've even had to bootstrap a clean PDP mini by writing and then keying-in the code to make the tape-reader work - using physical switches on the main panel.
It's a humbling experience.
