I stand corrected. Though that was in 1991, which is 7 years after the timeframe the OP is arguing about.

Traditional "linux repositories" are kind of walled gardens though. I mean, the software is vetted and controlled by the bistro's maintainer, is it not? Isn't it also true that sensible advice is to not add repo's f

I actually agree with this. This is the status quo on Silicon Macs. But let's not pretend that there will be untold levels of caterwauling when Apple choose not to document any of it. Also, in my experience, the majority of people wi

Not angry about anything my friend, just incredulous that you seemingly cannot separate Hollywood from what is front of you. Your definitions, as demonstrated by lisper, are at best debatable. > The other competitors in the area around t

I, and several others have done precisely that in this thread. Next time, don't use a Hollywood dramatisation to back up your stories. They aren't real! Woz is on record as saying that the conversation never happened. Fundamenta

You're absolutely right, how could I miss it! Steve Jobs hated the thought of programmable computers so much that he stopped these languages being included a full 3 years before any of them existed! /s What you think you've

I don't know what you're trying to prove. Your original point, which you laughably attempted to prove with a clip from a movie, was that Jobs "despised" programable computers. This is demonstrably false.

Fact: the link the OP provided was from a Hollywood movie, a know reliable source of historical accuracy. /s That there was no dev environment on release demonstrates precisely nothing , certainly not the fact that programmable person

Love that you are linking to a piece of fiction, at literal dramatisation of events that almost likely never happened to illustrate a point that has no real foundation in fact. Every version of macOS that shipped with a CD had either PBX

They've been doing them a while. There are pieces on the devs behind Things, as well as interviews with Craig Hockenberry (The Icon Factory), Gus Mueller (Flying Meat) and Ken Case (Omni Group). I'm sure I've also seen one wi

It boggles the mind how a psychologist could have thought that the experiments were even remotely ethical. TK was an evil man, no doubt, but Henry Murray is equally as evil IMHO, and somewhat culpable for the outcome.

Anxiety disorders are a thing and a real form of depression. Onset is normally mid teens to mid thirties. “Man up” is categorically not any advice anyone should be giving out. Even if it is “merely” shyness, it’s OK to be shy and not want t

OpenGL was a technological dead-end and Vulkan came 2 years after Metal, which as stated, came about because OpenGL was a technological dead-end. Besides, mobile gaming with Metal has been reasonably successful, whichever way you slice it.

You’re somewhat missing the point of what passkeys are. Instead of the something you know part, i.e. a password, the authentication is done by something you have. Your common use case is only common to single factor password authentication.

With that attitude, Linux and its ecosystem wouldn’t exist. But to answer your question; because they can and are having fun doing so.

iPhone 3G was released in summer 2008, right in the middle of the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression. Arguably, this was the beginning of iPhone's rise in popularity. The original iPhone was released in 2007, and the c

Have a look at RAW Power by Gentlemen Coders ( https://www.gentlemencoders.com/ ). The team consists of former Aperture engineers, so it's similar. Costs a reasonable $40. You can use either Photos libraries or manage

“When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while.”
