That is where the Raspberry Pi we mentioned at the beginning comes in. Exactly. It is a small, inexpensive computer that can be used to experiment and learn. Torvalds mentions it as an example of a tool that can be made available to people interested in discovering how technology works. And why does he accept that some end up barely being used? Because, in his view, not every device has to spark a calling. If a small proportion of those who receive one discover that they enjoy exploring and creating with it, Torvalds considers that the initiative may have been worthwhile. For one person, it may be a passing curiosity. For another, the beginning of a more lasting interest. That is the possibility he wants to keep open. The value he highlights is not that everyone goes through the same stages, but that resources are available for those who want to keep learning.
