From Kathleen Booth inventing Assembly in 1947 and living to see smartphones, to the Apollo moon landing running on Assembly code, to Bill Gates dropping out of college with a BASIC interpreter, to why your bank still runs on a "dead" language from 1959, this is the history nobody teaches you in a coding bootcamp.
If you're learning to code, prepping for interviews, or just like knowing why the tech around you works the way it does, this one's for you.
