Thanks. Yes, I iterated multiple times with the goal of making the concepts very clear to understand.

Thanks. I am glad you liked it. I just wanted to help everyone understand the concepts in detail. I felt the existing materials were either way too textbook like or very high level. This is just my attempt at explaining things in a more interesting way.

Hi, author here. I didn't vibe code this and have put considerable amount of effort in explaining the ideas. I have used Claude for review and help with visuals. My aim was just to help others understand these concepts easily. Thanks for your feedback, i'll improve the design and reading experience.

Hi, author here. I did explain all the fundamentals without leaving any gaps. Please do give it a read and I hope you like it.

Hi, author here. Sorry, you felt that way. I did put lot of effort in communicating my understanding, and used Claude only for review and visualizations.

Hi, author here. I have put a considerable amount of effort in explaining the ideas as clearly as possible, and I used Claude only for helping me with the animations. My aim is just to explain the concept. I'm mainly a backend engineer, i'll take your feedback and put more effort on the design and presentation.

Glad it helped. This was my exact goal. I never found any book or anyone explaining all the foundations in a simpler way, either they were taught like textbooks or dumbed down with analogies. And at multiple occasions I couldn't find anything easier to follow, to share with my friends who were interested to understand computers and programming. Finally, I thought let me give it a try, let me write it in such a way I wished someone would introduce me to computers and programming for the first time. And I really enjoyed doing this, even I was able to find some gaps in my understanding.

Thanks, i am glad you liked it. Yes, i'm already working on more specialized articles. This was meant to be a broader article. You can see the planned articles here: https://fazamhd.com/mental-models/

Hi, I understand your point. But my intention was just to create a sense of wonder that we have manipulated an inanimate thing to do useful things for us. I have only used it in the intro. In the rest of the article, i am only talking about actual ideas and concepts.

Hi, thanks for your feedback. Regarding the back button issue, that was an oversight from my part. I'll fix that.

I am glad you liked the diagrams and simulations. I understand that it would have been better if the article was much shorter. I actually didn't want to leave any gaps in understanding or leave any important historical context. But i'll try to improve it.

Hi, author here. Thanks for your feedback. I'll avoid doing it in my next articles. I'll try to keep it very natural, just like how i'll be explaining to my closest friends.
