I have been intrigued by electronics and technology pretty much my entire life. One of the first memories that I have related to technology was when I was about 5 years old.

We hardly know where we’ve been.>
Why is courage something that we should develop? After all, we’re not gladiators fighting to the death in an arena or warriors wielding swords of justice, unless you spend your free time LARPing. Most of us (meaning those of you who likely read this blog and myself) are working class citizens with pretty cushy lives when compared to ancient Japanese Samurai or Roman Gladiators. >
