Learning and drawing logical circuits in school was kind of weird back then. In a way like learning to do multiplication in your head while there was a calculator right in front of you, it did not seem to make any sense beyond understanding the concepts, and training some of them.

Honestly, I can’t really relate to why he kept this up, but I am glad for him. The result is cool, and he seemed to have learned a lot during his efforts. I wish I could have the same dedication to anything in life - but then, I am a bit of a generalist, which has its own merits. Or so I hope.
