I’d argue programming is much less accessible now. For starters “programming” means a thousand different things and where do you even start?

My Apple //e came with one language, BASIC, it was built in, nothing to buy, and came with a book on how to get started writing it.

But yeah I didn’t start at 8.

We didn’t get that Apple until I was 10, so that’s then I started.
