Hello Alejandro :)
Indeed, it is magical how great endings from small beginnings [ Sic Parvis Magna ] resonates with both of us, I have a YouTube channel where I teach programming for beginner to intermediate levels and sometimes I allow advanced tutorials as well.
Like you, I follow instructions too, we all should :) if the machine accepts the 0s and1s as instructions , then we should do the same, right ?
Lately, I stopped creating tutorials and simply I sit and code [prepared of course] and just a week ago I have coded a Missile Command game in Python, and I remember I played this game a lot with my father on Atari :) Do you know Missile Command?
You can check out my YouTube channel and I am happy to have you as a friend , Alejandro : youtube.com/channel/UC7EVSn5inapL2...
Tell me more about what you do now, do you freelance or working in a company ?

amazing! Of course I know Missile Commando, that's one of my all time favorite games! River raid, Moctezuma and others.
I will check it out (the channel).
I'm also coding games with Python, specifically PyGame. I can apply what I already know from my work into games and that is cool, the learning curve is not so steep. I would like to transfer this knowledge into a game engine like Godot when I have finished more projects on Python (GDScript is very similar).
Background: right now, I'm working as a Data Engineer and studying software engineering. I already have 4 years of experience, but I wanted to learn the "engineering" part of it.
Finally, I think I should also share what I do here on DEV, maybe it can help others too and connect with more people.
Have a nice day!
