in reply to Really now

For some reason, this reminds me of an almost 20-year-old (!!) Dilbert strip:

Wally look-alike: When I started programming, we didn’t have any of these sissy “icons” and “windows.”
All we had were zeros and ones — and sometimes we didn’t even have ones.
I wrote an entire database program using only zeros.
Dilbert: You had zeros? We had to use the letter “O.”
