  • Is it worth posting here
    theoldfoolT theoldfool

    New site is good, change takes time to adjust. I have never, ever been accused of trying to solve the CCC. The weirdo's doing them are scary to those of us in the slow group. :) (the old way)

  • When programming was (still) fun
    theoldfoolT theoldfool

    I think it was more satisfying (avoiding the word fun) because the technology was newer and the tools were crude. I started as a jet engine mechanic. Later, my first "system" had vacuum tubes, relays, and core storage. then we graduated to trouble shooting using bit switch programs we wrote. The "good old days" were not as good as today, which will be somebody's "good old days".

    Check out the Gartner Hype Cycle. Probably fits.

  • I'm officially "old"
    theoldfoolT theoldfool

    Nope. Old is when your child signs up for social security (next year). I am on my third retirement (and still working too many hours).

    Powershell available for Linux now. Life is good! :)

  • WSO CCC OTD - no winner
    theoldfoolT theoldfool

    Give it some time. I have never understood, much less solved a CCC. :)
    I thought maybe AI could do it. Must have used the oldfool LLM.

  • Did anyone notice?
    theoldfoolT theoldfool

    Remember it well. One place gave away memory to allow buyers to install it. Loved it when the last diskette caused the install to crash. Worked trade shows in the those days when Gateway cows grazed.

    I'll have you know that I use nothing but natural stupidity.
