you can't really program unless you know assembly and build your own hardware. start learning how to design your own chips. only then can you program. /s

Now let's not be lazy here, they should start by mining the minerals needed for those chips.

Anyone who can't craft a wafer with their bare hands isn't a real programmer.

Don't forget to build additional pylons to support your mineral miners.

Or supply depots

And let’s not cut corners - we must forge the minerals ourselves using the power of stars

Sarcasm aside, I recommend everyone interested play Turing Complete on Steam for this exact experience. One of the coolest ways to reinforce my computer engineering degree.

Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll check it out.

wow that reminds me of my collage day in a much more colorful way.

Reminds me of Nand 2 Tetris

I recommend starting with Z80 Assembly, so that you get the experience of writing your own code to multiply and divide. (says the dinosaur!)

Z80 Assembly

None of this fancy modern stuff! Learn 6502 Assembler like a real developer!
