Pardon my ignorance on this matter but if the processing unit isn’t displaying graphics shouldn’t it just be referred to as a cpu?

I guess I’m challenging the assertion that mostly keyboard with mouse sprinkled in is more efficient than more heavily mouse oriented UIs. There is literature that suggests otherwise and that literature was not based off state of the art mo

dirs -v presents a numbered stack of directories. Pushd doesn’t just function on one directory but also takes in a number pointing to a directory on the stack. Nothing like this exists out of the box for PS and it’s one of the most producti

I used to think that way but modern mice and touchpads along with the relevant literature have convinced me that keyboard paired with mouse is more productive.

Are you familiar with Oberon? ACME is really closer to that than Smalltalk. It’s funny you mentioned both though because I’ve toyed with the idea of making an Oberon/Acme environment in Squeak. I’m quite certain it’s doable with Morphi

What’s the dirs -v, pushd and popd equivalent in PS?

Powershell, an inferior shell to Bash and an inferior scripting language to Python. But probably quite useful for administering corporate windows instances.

All roads lead to Smalltalk.

I’ve tried to switch to Powershell a few different times and I always find it to occupy this no man’s land between a quality shell and a quality scripting language. As a shell I find it inferior to BASH and as a scripting language I find it

Ah, management’s never ending dream to commoditize software development; gotta love it. I’ve spent the last several years being paid good money working on various failed “digital transformation”projects and am currently working on another o

The HTTP verbs don’t support RPC unless you violate their specified operations. Add DO to GET, PUT, POST, PATCH and DELETE along with expanded response codes and I’m good.

Yeah, because the US/CIA would never infiltrate countries that aren’t on board with US hegemony and start color revolutions to overthrow democratically elected leaders.

That would bother me but that's not what's happening in tech. If anything, tech is purposefully discriminating against white males at this point to promote some artificial ideal of race and gender equity.

I'd argue health care is more important and it's disproportionately represented by females. This must bother you deeply.

Society doesn’t need equal representation in every field of endeavor. It only needs to remove institutional barriers to entry. I’d argue those barriers really don’t exist now and that lamenting over group preferences is a fool’s errand. I d

Yeah, it’s a racist comment because it assumes one has to have such and such skin color or such and such gender to be different. There’s an infinite number of characteristics that make us individuals, skin color and gender are just two.

The problem is more fundamental and it’s this; web apps are broken and have been from the beginning. They were created to solve the problems related to software distribution and updates but these problems were solved in the early 2000s when

Requirements are more constrained the further down the stack you go. I think this is why the engineering types find it more appealing. I successfully ejected from front end development years ago. From my perspective, front end development a

Yep, TripTiks we’re awesome. With map apps I feel as though I’m constantly battling them as I always expect the top of the map/phone to represent north. Maybe it was because I grew up in a rural area but I much prefer NSEW directions a

In the way I think IntellJ is a better application than attempting to rewrite IntellJ in JS and run it in the browser. This would hold for any number of applications. HTTP, HTML and the DOM were not designed to run rich applications. It’s b

The web was an app delivery platform 20 years ago, at least that’s what the folks at Sun and Adobe tried to tell us. But then everyone pitched a collective fit and rejected injection of a runtime container into the browser. Now we have the

I think for personal computing a single user, multi tasking OS is the sweet spot. It's too bad that stagnated with BeOS and Amiga.
