Once my mother was working on a big project for her work in word. So, she was pretty much done when she hit Ctrl-A + spacebar. She panicked. All that work wasted. My 4 year old self heard her yelling in the other room and I came in. She explained what happened and I just pressed Ctrl-Z. Everything was back. She thought I was magical.

My first computer was about when i was 3. Well, I always had computers around but I started using them and surfing the web at around 3(which pretty much amounted to silly little games). But I knew the ins and outs of Windows and how to get around and figure stuff out.

I got my own personal computer at around 10.

Now, I'm 14 and I'm just getting into programming and Linux.




If you're for real, you're one scary motherfucker. I'm glad I'm not in the job market anymore.
