They look exactly what i would think programmers looked like

[@pauldavis5665]

In the 1980's computer programmers actually looked like the generic stereotypical computer programmer. These days programmers look like anyone else, they have assimilated and blended with the rest of human society. lol

[@kxmode]

In the 80s and 90s, people who were into games were often unpopular in school and typically bullied. Getting into computers and games and finding others who liked those things created a sense of community and friendship that the "popular" kids denied them. Today, those same "popular" types are into gaming. They have large social media followings and make a lot of money off something that used to be the realm of geeks and nerds.

[@JohnMichaelson]

Computer Chronicles is timeless. At a time when most computer industry types looked down their nose at game design as just as toys for kids it was nice to see Stuart and Gary give the topic the same depth of discussion and seriousness they do with other other topics.

[@michaelcorcoran8768]

Yeah and it is also just a joy to see the prices and the hardware offerings for consumers at the time. It was just wild watching the laptop episode where they were talking about only having 90 minutes of battery life

[@JohnMichaelson]

@@michaelcorcoran8768 I know, right? They talk about dropping $2,000-3,000+ in 1984 dollars on this stuff like it was nothing!

Cutting edge technology has always been very expensive. An Alta X drone will run you about $20,000 in 2023. How much do you think a drone with comparable abilities will cost in twenty years?

[@cesarchoya6961]

Gorgeous reply. Plenty of respect and thoughtfulness. Usually replies are just egolatric comments. It’s not fair make fun comments regarding tech that time versus now. We have to see things in perspective, the impact of things in that time, and the fact that we continue watching CC this days expose that the work they made was amazing. And we’re still learning watching in retrospective. Tech of the future sure will see very naive the current one. But somethings are become classic as Computer Chronicles and as you said; timeless.

[@JohnMichaelson]

@@cesarchoya6961Thanks for the reply, Cesar. Gary K I think had a lot of respect for game designers and the innovation in the hobby. There were some of these gaming episodes (I think they did at least one each year) that he's really animated and into the discussion more than other episodes.

This is also the same year Geoff Crammond released Revs, the first racing sim. There's something really cool about these people fully committing themselves to making something realistic, and succeeding to some degree with processing power that compared to modern system basically rounds off to zero. Mad props to the code wizards of old.

@@EmperorLjas Reminds me that I had Flight Simulator on my ZX81!

[@walteralcaraz5898]

@@ian_b LOL. I remember that MicroSoft Flight Simulator was one of the "test" programs for PC clones back then. Many IBM PC clones of the 1980s had problems running the program properly, and would often crash. Only a true IBM PC or a near exact clone could run it well. That and Lotus 1-2-3 were unofficial compatibility test programs for clones. In the early 1980s, PC clones often were not 100% compatible like they are now, because IBM had copyrighted their BIOS and anyone who tried to copy it was taken to court for copyright infringement. It took Compaq Computer and the black box reverse engineering method to finally crack it, and then 100% PC clones were available to all.

Trip was on point and his vision unfolded exactly as he stated, while cashing in big time.

66K of Assembly code is pretty damn hardcore.

[@kinggymsrepublic3540]

yes but when you do it in modern computer language its pretty easy to make

[@ian_b]

Well, I think the difficulty of assembler is overstated, probably because most programming is in higher level languages these days so it's a bit of a "dark art". I like projects with microcontrollers, which I program in assembler (and back in the 80s I used to write Z80 Assembler). I was working on some code the other day, looking for a bug, and it occurred to me that in fact I don't mentally "decode" it into something else, I read it as a native. It's like musical notation, which is very slow to read if you have to consciously go "that note is a C quaver, that note is a F# crotchet" but once you're reading it native, it just flows.

[@teknoguy2002]

VERY LARGE!

[@AcornElectron]

He was a smarmy arsebiscuit, 66k.. wooo... even then 66k wasn’t really that huge. It’s only because he was writing it for the 800 that there was a constraint. The Amiga was on the scene within 12 months of this airing. Christ, even the bbc and 128 spectrum had more complex games than Excalibur. Obviously I’m talking in depth as well as complexity of programming.

[@paulmichaelfreedman8334]

Games like Centipede and Millipede were 12K and 16K, respectively. That included all graphics too. Not comparing but to show how much could be done with so little code. Millipede has an AI on board predicting every move you make, it's creepily good at it too.

I just looked up Bill Budge and found him on Wikipedia... "Budge does not enjoy playing video games, and described having to play pinball for months while developing Pinball Construction Set as "sheer torture." He more enjoyed writing fast graphics libraries for game programmers. Budge said "I wasn't that interested in playing or designing games. My real love was in writing fast graphics code. It occurred to me that creating tools for others to make games was a way for me to indulge my interest in programming without having to make games."

The distinction they make between video game and computer game is kinda strange... but I guess it made sense at the time. Today game consoles are essentially x86 PCs with a custom OS, but up to the mid-90s they had way more specialized hardware and were significantly underpowered compared to mid-to-high-end desktop PCs.

[@hazy33]

Yup plus console versions of PC games were mostly dumbed down version made simpler as it was thought the console gamer wasn't as sophisticated (to put it politely) as the PC gamer.

Interesting note from the Random Access portion: IBM struck a production license agreement with Intel for 8088 and 286 CPUs. Later on, Intel changed their tune and chose not to license out production of the 386 when it came out. Consequently, IBM stuck making 286 machines and delayed their launch of a 386 PC. Compaq then beat Big Blue to the punch. Henceforth came the decline of IBM as the king of the very architecture they invented.
