Current situation: Friday, July 20, 2018, 3:34 p.m., Sourcetoad office

At the place where I work — Sourcetoad, a custom software development shop in Tampa where I’m the Lead Product Manager — we have a number of “classic computing” posters on the walls. One of them is the cover of a 1977 issue of Popular Science that features the Commodore PET 2001 computer, one of the computers on which I first learned programming.
