The song about youth time of programming

When someone knew a little what Ctrl-Alt-Del means1
And not every kid had a calculator
And the word 'Pascal'2 was identifying as a philosopher's name
 
Not all keypunchers3 were directed to the total salvage yet
But we came into this world and we went for the breakthrough.
And we didn't know comfort from the new ideas and questions
 
We were young and we didn't scare of the barriers
Where 'reset' won't rescue 'format' will help4
And if we didn't have the copies we took other tactics
 
We used diskettes5 and
We collected back the rests of the broken programs
And we were inputting the hex dumps6manually
 
Generally, we were spitting to any Copyright7
100Kb memory size seemed us like a vast
We had been learning Assembler,8 that didn't know the multiply commands
 
We weren't cutting the printouts into sheets
And our first viruses were simple
But we were thrilled of their spreading
 
Thereat we didn't scare, we were bolder
Nor bad sectors, neither magnetic fields
And even power breakdown wasn't a source of a fear
 
For us, everything was devil-may-care, and simple at all
To hang up SM9 having pressed just one button
DVK10 were serving us and Yamaha.11 was obeying us
 
But the progress was opening new ways in front of us
And having left the old 'friends' instead of brand new XT
We wrung out all we could from DOS12 and architecture13
 
We were changing the command codes, tracing the INT14
We were disassembling BIOS 15
and we were writing in the ports16
That I wouldn't allow to write if I were17 at the place of censorship
 
But this period has gone, but it was a long ago
Now everyone has a lot of routine work
And the user-fool clicks with a mouse on images proudly
 
And we consider piracy already almost a sin
And we covered with Aidstests18 as the tree with a moss
We have so many protections that sometimes we forget passwords
 
But those times we weren't scared of any program
And we were going to fight just using simple 'debug'19
And a skillfully written virus was meeting as a bro20
 
And now we press 'reset' at any time...
And wherever you go everywhere you come across RET,21
And it's also good if there is a return address on the stack.
 
Now we are too lazy to be sophisticated, to optimize the code,
And we write the interface with fools from year to year,
We got used to a powerful machine, having lost any risk.
 
We forgot command codes and a stock of the old tricks,
And sometimes the hate to the Windows system
Lights a fire in our eyes as an indicator of Hard Disk Drive
