@kkarhan @catsalad When I was a kid, a friend of my dad worked at TI. He would bring me home their "leftovers" (scraps), so I always had chips, boards, and various parts and wires in boxes in my room. I loved it, and would spend hours at a time just looking at them to try and understand them, or plugging them in together in various ways to see if I could get them to work. That evolved into learning a bit about electronics and circuits, and trying to build my own. When I eventually realized I was bad at hardware, I segued into programming, and that's where I've been ever since. So seeing pictures like this really brings back some warm childhood memories. :)
