It's funny how things come together over time.
I got into programming and comp. science from video games as well :)
Although, I am nowhere as experienced as you in such fields.
This was a very good video; I think it's good to share more personal stories so we can get more of a sense of who you are as a person, in addition to the valuable information you provide about crypto.
Also, I don't know if you are interested, but we have a discord run by @fyrstikken. Many other steemit users hangout here, and many people there are quite skilled in programming and crypto, much like yourself. You might find you have a lot in common with some of the people there :)
