Somehow I still get those chills while reading source code of programming languages interpreters / compilers. I guess it's like getting to the origins of life, or something.
It is. As a kid, I kind of understood programs, but I could not even imagine how an interpreter (or compiler) could work. I partly got a CS degree just so I could learn the answer.
Incredibly similar to my story. I did not even know how to program, but the mere idea of something that took code in and spit executables out was completely magic to me. I absolutely had to know how they worked.
