i guess part of my fear is that what we have now (three huge OSes that are user unfriendly in deep and fundamental, albeit different, ways) is too entrenched to ever really change

incidentally: when you're using the shell in *nix, you're programming. there's a reason it's called shell scripting. and i think some of the complaints non-technical users have with learning to code can also give some insight into why the shell is often so user-unfriendly for that demographic

if you truly want a "year of linux on the desktop" someday, that's worth thinking about

there's artfulness, and a sense of the arcane, in skillfully manipulating strange tokens to form the incantations that will get your computer to do what you want

but i often think about how much of programming is only intuitive to me because i've been steeped in it for years

i think visual programming is the next step, and i'm excited to see what people are doing in that area

i believe it was @chr@cybre.space who i once saw say something to the effect of "the fact that we're still programming in text shows how far computer science still has to go"

i think about that a lot

For one brief shining moment in the 1980s-1990s, it seemed like we the people would own and control our own computing infrastructure.

That we wouldn't ever after need permission from opaque central authorities to process data, send messages, create devices, teach machines ideas. No corporations or governments could put themselves between us and the data bits in our machines. We would be free to think.

That moment is rapidly slipping into a history that feels ridiculously over-optimistic.

If there's one thing I love about Yugioh over MtG is the variety of monsters.

MtG: I summon an elf and like some goblins
Yugioh: I summon a busty nurse and a Power Ranger

Boss makes a dollar
I make a dime
That was a poem
From a simpler time

Boss makes three dollars
The economy's lit
I make a penny
And I haven't got shit
