I still have my copy of the first Byte magazine! (September 1975) And at age 74, I'm still playing with electronic things like Raspberry Pi and Arduino.

Vlad Șerban, just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I taught software for over 30 years and discussed nibbles in my classes
