Oh yeah, I forgot about that one! I got paid as a kid doing dBase II on Xerox CP/M then III/IV on Olivetti PC too. Before I saw NeXTSTEP, Visual Basic 1.0 was amazing. I was lucky enough to get paid to make a similar GUI builder for OS/2 and NT. Coding for work was pretty straight forward, except for the occasional multithreaded work. It wasn't until seeing completely different languages like SmallTalk, Lisp, or OCaml that it got exciting again. Perl for me was just, why? I briefly saw Python used by some ops folks on QNX but I didn't venture into the whitespace is significant territory to see its goodness until much much later. |
