Programming
Programming since about 1980; gods I'm old.
First computer language used: BASIC ... with line numbers
First computer owned: Apple IIc
Pronouns
My pronouns are e/en.
I invented gender neutral pronouns since it's silly that English doesn't have gender neutral, singular pronouns. My brain is unable to use they/them as singular. I tried to train it. It failed.
The left side of my brain cannot change to use they/them. And the right side of my brain knows why. English is very strongly based on number – much more so than gender.
