< how did you start dev (for those who do)?

I stepped on a rusty nail in my early 20s. When I came to from the delirium, I found I'd written several pages of what I soon enough learned was referred to as "8085 assembler".

It's been a downhill slide of hallucinations of curly-braced grandeur and awkward social missteps ever since....

Does 8085 pre-date the 6502, because I read (and watched) many a things about 6502 (Motorola?) when it comes to assembly language (being a tick above RISC-V and ARM, yet "below" (in complexity) x86(32/64)). Either way, never heard of 8085.

At least now I know where the textural creativity and screentime dedication derives from: nail-stepping misfortunes of hallucinatory nature ;)
