T-Rex: In today's society, knowing a little about computers can go a long way! They're not magic boxes. In fact, the more you learn about them the less magical they'll be!
T-Rex: Soon you'll be staring at an obscure compiler error and no magic will be left in the world!
Dromiceiomimus: Are you starting with object-oriented development or structured programming? And either way, how are you introducing declaration scope and abstractions?
T-Rex: I thought I'd actually start with logic gates, and build up to simple machine languages from that?
Dromiceiomimus: Hmm... maybe start with functional programming, so state isn't a concern?
Utahraptor: Computers: more complicated than they seem?
T-Rex: NO, DON'T SAY THAT!
T-Rex: People don't learn about computers because they worry it'll be hard, and if word gets out that they're actually machines so incredibly complex that the last CPU to be designed without other computers helping us was the 386 processor back in 1985, then we're DOOMED.
T-Rex: I'm serious! Don't tell a soul that current processors are so complex that we literally cannot fully understand them, and engineers work in teams where each only understands a little bit at a time!!
T-Rex: BECAUSE OTHERWISE, AS I SAY, WE ARE ALL TOTALLY DOOMED
