Ask HN: As a developer what are your aha moments?

To me the aha moments where as follows:

1. When I was introduced to QBasic

2. When I got to know how simple and amazing Lisp is

3. When I was able to code at the speed of my thoughts with VIM

4. When I got to know Express.js (after learning Django)

5. When I knew that everything in Smalltalk is a message including if else statements
