» Old stuff I still know
Quite a few people have mentioned programming in BASIC as an obsolete skill.
Obscure and old maybe, but not obsolete for me. I still use BBC BASIC for coding prototype Windows applications as part of my day job. I get paid to do that. So hooray for that solitary BBC Micro Model B in primary school and for all the mockery I endured as a child for knowing a bit about how it worked.
That is all. PS Hello.
