A little quizz ...<br />
• Who has used the Internet?<br />
... self taught?<br />
• Who programs regularly?<br />
... learned at ETH?<br />
... self taught?<br />
Biggest program ...<br />
..1000/10000/100000 LoC?<br />
• Have you built or configured your own<br />
computer?<br />
... self taught?<br />
• Ever programmed <strong>in</strong> assembler?<br />
... self taught?<br />
• Do you consider yourself a hacker?<br />
