It's not going to be a popular subject, I don't think your curiosity
will be rewarded.

I do agree that culture is very important.  I also think that I was
extremely lucky to learn computing at the time when there were many
diverse architectures and assembler programming was how you gat the
most from the limited resources available.  I wish I could teach my
target audience the same way, despite the perception that such
knowledge is no longer relevant.
