[@marksman314]

Your mom ("mum?") is a realllllllly good sport about this, ha ha... I remember when I used to torment mine with my own nerdy preoccupations, like making her guess Spanish verb conjugations and national anthems, and I feel for all moms/mums everywhere!

[@Lukaazas9]

@prinniesforeveryone I see you torment everyone by being an asshole? Also, a bit of Karen-ish entitlement is coming from you. Unfortunately, things or people you do not like are not universally "not liked". Just so much wrong with your comment...

[@billchatfield3064]

I really admire Diana's ideas about usability and efficiency. A programmer should minimize the number of steps a user has to take to complete an operation. The steps should be as obvious as possible. Otherwise you're just wasting the user's time and making her life harder, when the whole point of a computer is to make life easier. As a programmer myself I can say that programmers are very bad at creating usable software. But it is not easy to do. You have to do user acceptance testing, which is exactly what these videos are. However, on the programming side, TempleOS has some great ideas about code efficiency and transparency.

[@names_are_useless]

Depends on the intended audience. TempleOS is designed for Commodore 64 Tinkerer types. Windows is designed for (generally) low-knowledge users.

[@gertnutterts988]

8:40 The reason the first "Dir;" didn't work was because you accually executed "dirDir;". Think about it. ;)

I have always missed computers that just booted up into a REPL. (I know bash etc are a repl but that doesn't count because bash is a bit weird. I mean a REPL for a language that you actually *want* to write programs in).

its an interesting OS. it is impressive how the creator did this all by himself, but at the same time, i am also kind of creeped out by this OS. its creator seems to have a great liking of random number generators. its an interesting toy, but not something i would use regularly. its still pretty impressive that this person created his own kernel, desktop UI, and programming language.

Terry A. Davis is an absolute nutcase but the fact that he actually put this together is pretty damn impressive. I "think" I saw a video of him talking about his own OS once, and it was quite frankly the most difficult to understand video ive ever tried to analyze, the claims of him being schizophrenic are believable.

[@greenaum]

To be fair, programming is fairly confusing for n00bs, and the workings of operating systems are confusing even for programmers. Add in a fairly heavy case of schizophrenia, and it's hard to tell he's even speaking ASCII.

It's actually incredible all things aside about TAD that he not only programmed his OWN compiler, but he programmed his own OS as well. They both may not be very good, but he did it all by himself.

That would be bloat, so let’s not include it!” Thinking about it though, it could be smart in some ways. If you have a minimal list of commands it’s easier to learn them all. If you really wanted to take it a step further: why even have separate commands for files and directories? Why not just have a single OPEN-command that opens folders and files
