Well, we all are surrounded by computers and minimal curiosity will guide you to ask how they work (they're magic, after all).

If one of your parents is a programmer, it's easy to go down the rabbit hole.

Plus it's way cool since you can impress your kiddie friends.

"So you want to become a plumber, but with APIs and data instead of pipes and water?"

My internal kid voice said "Yeah!". Until I read the other reply, it hadn't occurred to me that your rhetorical question's intended answer might be "No"

I've always considered myself a digital janitor of sorts, always cleaning up garbage other people leave around.

Yeah, but can the plumber spam all his friends automatically on Instagram?
