          I started with VB3, which didn’t have custom classes. I have no idea how I did anything back then, but at least it was better than TurboBasic.

              Interesting to meet another person that went through the “GW-BASIC to Rust” journey. Mine was through FreeBasic and C++ in the middle but we ended up in the same neighbourhood.

              I did BASIC on the Apple IIe, then TurboBasic, Visual Basic (3, 4, 5 and 6 with some C in there somewhere), VB.Net, C#, Java, Objective-C and finally QT. Now I drive a school bus.

                  Lol “landed”. We are fucking desperate for drivers. So desperate that one of our drivers totaled two cars in one day last year and didn’t even get suspended.

                    Yeah probably similar a lot of places. It is the same here. Always signs up everywhere begging for bus drivers. Crazy
