Ah, I see, that's not what I meant (hence the 'TUIs are often tailored for advanced users' and 'the majority of GUIs prioritize user-friendly experiences for the general consumer' phrasing). I agree there are al

> many want something they can click on [...] it's about reaching more people To me, these reasons underscore the need for a genuine GUI, rather than a TUI that requires users to open a terminal just to have something clickable.

Do you have examples where this is the case? In my experience, they've always seemed mutually exclusive.

I prefer TUIs over GUIs primarily because TUIs are often tailored for advanced users — essentially, for professionals. In contrast, the majority of GUIs prioritize user-friendly experiences for the general consumer. When a 'TUI' b

Ah of course, the large number of platforms where the Oberon OS has been pushed to by the many Oberon cult members ;)

It's a simple and small system that renders directly to a framebuffer (Project Oberon only supports black and white), it's optimized for simple CPU architectures (and that's an understatement), extremely small footprint and d

I agree in the case of HN readers, for grandma and grandpa, not so much. In addition to that, lending ebooks from the public library provides (at least some) income to the e-book authors and editors.

Most public libraries require an Android/iOS app for (controlled) digital lending.

IMO the Oberon operating system would be a really good fit for this type of hardware. http://www.projectoberon.net/

It does work because many people would remember such a protest clearly, as do you. But I agree that it shouldn't work, making your comment masculine seems to make that more obvious: Do shirtless protests work? I remember turning the co

The objective outlined at https://git.sr.ht/~plan/plunder is certainly compelling: Plunder is a new programming model where programs run forever. Hardware restarts are invisible to the software, as is moving a runni

I appreciate visual artifacts that convey meaningful information, such as actual photographs, graphs, diagrams, and similar elements. Which is probably a relatively small subset of images on the web.

I like the idea of Gemini, but having just a subset of the web's functionality is not enough. While it might not be a perfect analogy, many prefer using the terminal/shell/TUIs is because it is more powerful and efficient tha

For me personally, "The Andromeda Strain" (1971) feels like science fiction that is true to the term itself, especially in its adherence to scientific principles.

This might sound strange, but in my opinion Odin is a Pascal variant with a C like syntax.

Curious about the quality of its search feature.

Just like you, I was pretty doubtful when I first clicked the link. But it actually seems like a lot of thought has been put into this.

Looks more like Ada to me.

The tool certainly presents an appealing design, however I am unsure of the necessity of its interactive features. It mixes several concerns that I would typically assign to separate applications, such as fzf and $EDITOR.
