I have always been passionate about computers. At first, they use to look like magic boxes that could do things based on the desires of their owners.

The first time I got to touch one, I realized that it wasn't that ready to do what I wanted. It made me understand that there are steps in order to talk to it. Our first date was awful. I could not make the lady talk much. Then I asked myself the ultimate question:

How, on earth, can I make this stuff work?

This question changed my life.

It helped me set goals. It guided me here today. I am still in the quest to answer the question. Because of it, I had to learn:

  • many languages(to talk to the lady lol)
  • graphics designing
  • web designing
  • web development
  • frontend & backend stuff

This was helpful. I was able to make her say some words. But as we exchange some words on a daily basis, I am starting to understand that there is still a lot to know about her.

So, I decided to make a dissection of her body(yeah) so that I can understand the basic components and functions. And there is a science for that. I had to learn it. Then I learned:

  • physics
  • mathematics
  • electronics

Here I have started to see why she couldn't talk to me anyhow.

I kind of know how to go about talking to her now. Her sub-components are extensively many and complex. It's built on top of a fantastic logic. It takes a lot of time to study them and how they relate to each other. In fact, if I am to understand them well I need a bit of chemistry... well it's deep.

I am zooboole, I study computers and along do what people do with computers.

Thanks
