I was apparently enraptured by PCs as a child, didn’t really do much apart from games / emulators until secondary school. at ~14 was offered an extracurricular class to learn how to program TI-82 calculators. This really clicked for me, ended up pursuing a heavy math / comp sci / stem curriculum. I get to automate away tedious / boring tasks by working on a mentally stimulating puzzle. The rush on getting it working the first time is 👌
