Back when I was first starting out we learned machine language and assembly language. Why, you might ask? Well, some of the computers I worked on a year later at Texas Instruments were actually programmed by setting toggle switches. That didn't last long, of course, we got new card readers, and the age of automation was upon us. Of course, the cards were punch in assembler, so... well, anyway, NADS is about learning your discipline from the very bottom, as though you had nothing more than your wits to work with. I can't think many of today's internet tech whizzes are working with toggle switches. Why would you need to learn that any more, unless you're very deep in the weeds? Anyhow, there will always be something that other people think is basic and must be learned. It probably isn't; it's probably where they started their learning, but won't be especially helpful to you.
