I've always been interested in learning how to do new things. But it was always about making stuff, not learning. I figured out how to build .gif riddled nightmares of websites. I didn't care about HTML etc, I just wanted to express myself and have other people see it.
I messed around with Photoshop and Blender3D and figured out how to make creepy 3D pictures for my ugly websites. But I wanted my stuff to do more so I started goofing off with Visual Basic.
Fast forward many years and I'm a developer by trade. And something amazing has happened. After ALL this time I have finally learned to love to learn... for the learning and not just the resulting stuff. When I learn new things it feels like the aftermath of an intense workout and I'm ready to dive in for more.
I want to different programming languages (Even the ones I don't want to learn), but I also want to know how they are created, and how the source is compiled into machine language. And how exactly the machine runs the application, and how the machine's OS does what it does. And how OS's are created.
I have a lot of reading to do, a lot of videos to watch, and a lot of training courses to take.
