I know both CL and Scheme, thanks. And both philosophies overlap a lot. Heck, there's an Scheme interpreter in PAIP as en exercise... I'd woudn't consider SICP negative, the same with all the good CL books (Intro to Symbolic

I mean, both Scheme and CL have good libraries and a set of standards.

Good luck with robots traing to lay up bricks, or doing plumbing in a home.

Think whatever you want. Unless you are Donald Knuth level educated, you can't be 100% sure.

Some hardware had segmented and tagged RAM as if it were a filesystem.

Tell that to middle bosses and CEOs and MS Office VBA bootlickers and Excel workshippers. Meanwhile, CSV files parsed with custom reviewed AWK scripts can be 100% safe with charts made from Gnuplot. Heck, even some notebook like Ipython w

Text processing formats should be declarative and not Turing complete. And, yes, leave PDF and PostScript for printers and final output, please.

A compiler and a assembler are predictable enough. An LLM will never be reproducible. Period. LLM base d AI's are doomed from the start.

This; and that WIndows 2k was as stable as OSX (compared to w9x and the ME disaster) but... it looked functional but boring , as a brutalist building in any European neighbourhood. Mac OS X blended both the incredible FX you would get from

OpenGL 2.1, basically between DirectX 8 and 9 level. If the Super Mario 64 PC port can run even under VooDoo 3D graphics card, I'd love a Max Payne level era device (and maybe able to run HL2) being able to play that.

There was a software rendered game in vein of Tomb Raider 1 graphics for both DOS and Unix, but I can't remember its name. It was an exploration game, modern, a bit cyberpunkish, in 3D.

Mac was the platform for journalists and printed press audio and media producers in Spain. Outside of that niche... good luck.

In Spain and Portugal the Mac was the printed press and graphic design platform. Everything for people who truly knew what CMYK and "offset printing" meant. Amiga were for TV studios and odd demoscene people and maybe raster art

Wine will just use the GPU capabilities of the Mac by mapping DirectX/3D calls to Metal. No need to keep any Windows installation, ever. Also here we are running Amd64 (64 bit Intel, but I use Amd64 for the original architecture) games

Can Java developers run a GUI builder outside the IDE and then use any other editor for the rest and then compile a project with Maven and the like?

Try a Wine port for Mac with Proton. Such as https://github.com/Sikarugir-App/Sikarugir Steps to compile it by hand (if you want a bit more of performance): Install homebrew /bin/bash -c "$(curl -f
