Does anybody still remember AND, OR, NAND, NOR... gates?

Yes we do 🙂 Wasn't it real fun to do the programming in Assembly...(I used a program called A86 I think)

I was MUCH more advanced🙂 We used Fortran....

You sure it was A86 and not X86?

I think it was the software described here:

Besides Assmbly I programmed in BASIc (now you may laugh) and PASCAL. Especially when I got access to the Supercomputer I needed to code in PASCAl, which was the language of choice @ University of Karlsruhe then.

He was not only too stupid to know how to drive a stick, he was also too stupid to know that most, if not all, fast sports cars only have a stick.

Actually, the saddest part of all is, this is a true story.
