You guys have it so easy these days. The first program I ever entered into a computer was called kill the bit and had to be entered in binary, one byte at a time into a front panel on an 8080 based computer.
This was the code in Octal:
000: 041 000 000 026 200 001 016 000
010: 032 032 032 032 011 322 010 000
020: 333 377 252 017 127 303 010 000
Now when I code in Objective C, a PHP Framework or even plain old C I never forget how much easier programming is now than it once was.
