I think I did also basics and then Turbo Pascal when I was, yeah, end of elementary school.
But mostly the first time I actually did some serious programming was
The first year of, you call that middle school when you're 11?
I lived in Italy for a year in Florence, and it was an amazing year.
And the math teacher told us to work in a programming language called Logo.
where you had a turtle that was designing things on the screen and you would turn left and right.
And in the end, we used that to do very complex programming because, of course, you could do things.
And this changed.
I knew I wanted to do things with computers and programs.
Yeah, brilliant.
And there is another sample, which is a sample that is Planet Earth's Kila sample that I absolutely love.
And you are going to see why.
It's a ton of birds flying.
And the more it goes, the more there are birds.
And at the end, it's almost like...
You have millions of birds.
It's the most complex thing ever to encode, right?
And well, you're watching it on YouTube and you see how bad the YouTube encoding is actually, right?
And this is like phenomenal to optimize and get perfect quality in a constant bitrate.
There was a lot of optimization, mostly by Loren also, on anime, right?
