I love the mechanical sounds of old computers. It gives you a sense that things are happening in a way that an animation of a spinning wheel can't.

How to Do Great Things (abbreviated notes from Hamming's Learning to Learn): bit.ly/2D8yew4 — lots of gold nuggets, great read. If you haven't already, highly recommend watching Hamming's "You and Your Research" talk on YouTube — a must.

Had the opportunity to watch this movie at @rmcwic! It's the story of the six women who programmed the ENIAC computer in 1946. Interesting and inspiring. eniacprogrammers.org
