So templeOS wants to be like a commodore64 and the things you did with the commodore64 that's what you wanna do with templeOS. So uhmm... On a modern computer, the modern kids today maybe... you might think they..they learn how to do artificial intelligence and.. you know fancy algorithms and stuff. The oldschool programmers instead knowing what order of algorithms were, they knew what assembly was and they knew.. they knew how to encode assemlby, they knew how to run the debugger, they knew how to do system calls, they knew how the disc worked, they knew how the serial port worked. Like a oldschool programmer knew how to write an interrupt routine okay... New programmer knows what order algorithm -eh you know what heap sort is or something. In the old days what you learned is how to write an interrupt routine, in the new days you learn what order algorithm heap sort is, that's kind of the difference. In the old days you learned how to write an interrup routine, in the new days you learn what big O order uh heap algorithm is. So it's kind of, its a different knowledge base.

So uh, is this, is the old stuff irrelevant? Well you are gonna get in trouble if you get too.. uhm.. too clueless. You know i just had an anonology the other day.

Let's pretend you were swimming in the deep ocean and you really don't know what's underneath you, you have no idea what's underneath you...

Well that's kind of the situation of a modern programmer, they're in the deep ocean they're doing a web application and it's so far down to the bottom hardware. The hardware is at the bottom of the ocean. And when you are in the middle of the ocean, boy you are a long way from anything called hardware.

Uhm in the old days it was kind of a shallow lake and you walked on the bottom and you waited out in the little pond and that's how you lived, you walked on the bottom of a muddy pond and you had your feet on the hardware and you knew what was underneath you. you know it's completely different feeling. It's a different feeling when you are in a pond and you have your feet on the bottom. It's qualitatively different than being in the middle of the ocean where you have absolutely no idea what is underneath you, you are just. A modern programmer are dipshits, they have no idea.
