Want to learn something from ground up/ don't know what

That's kind of evil. I like it, but it's evil. :-D
I'm not a stalker, I just know things. Oh by the way, you're out of milk.
Forgive your enemies - it messes with their heads

He said he wanted to learn something from the ground up. Can't get anymore low-level than assembler.

Ideally you would *want* to make *something*, that would be your passion and the language and tools to do it would all be incidental and learned along the way to making something you really like and believe in. Personally I find it really easy to learn stuff when it is in aid of whatever I'm actually interested in accomplishing.

Not good enough. You have manipulate the CPU with a AA battery and some wires on the leads of the CPU. Use a volt meter to check the results.

Thanks Nish. He deserved it - he did top my answer. I believe in rewarding positive behaviour.

I'm afraid I missed that before. Would I still be on time when I study it now, or has its future already passed? :)

We're working on version 2^n (codenamed two'to'n), so there's still time. :) Marc

.... um .... :~ .... I did. I put aside my aspirations to be a professional mattress tester (and sleep all day) or professional gamer (and play games all day) or bar tender (and drink all day) with the thought that maybe one day I will need a steady income. Seriously, when I had to choose a major (didn't even want to go to college) I had only two 'A' grades. One was studio art, and the other was C programming. I figured this would pay more. However, many years later, I'm trying again to figure out how to escape this cubicle :mad: Edit: Multiple edits because I can't spell after multiple 'on call' situations last night :confused:

In my experience you will do far better if you have problem and are looking for a solution than if you have a solution looking for a problem, unless it's a purely academic exercise. If it's academic, then study and learn whatever you want. If it supposed to be practical, figure out what problem you want to solve, then learn whatever it takes to solve it.

I'm sure you're not in the minority but maybe it's just prejudice but I can't see anyone creating anything truly great or wonderful if their only doing it for the money, then again in a big shop I guess there isn't a lot of opportunity to do anything great anyway being just a big cog in a development machine.
