Steve Jobs had incredible presentation skills but essentially it boiled down to

>Here is a problem X
>Here is how I fixed problem X and make it better

Terry Davis literally does the same thing Steve Jobs with TempleOS. He presents problems and then fixes them and improves upon his OS to make it more usable and efficient.

Literally, Terry is doing what Apple does with macOS but on TempleOS.

The difference is he is a bit crazy, but doesn't change the fact he is a technical genius.
>>
Steve Jobs did not even know 1% of what Terry Davis know about computers.

Steve Jobs did not even solve the problems, he made other people do it.

It's not his job(no pun intended) to solve those problems. His job (no pun intended) is to make other people solve those problems.

Stebe Jobs probably went around saying nigger this and nigger that too, for all intents and purposes. These are just not selling points. This was not something that could reach the audience.
>>
>>57771356
Yes, but regardless of the fact of Jobs' actual job ( which is not what you say, he actually found ways for people to apply these technologies to their lives ), Terry has both Wazowski's job and Jobs' job so it still applies regardless of what you say Jobs' job was.

There are different types of intellect.

There is no denying you can be a genius in programming and a genius in mathematics.

You don't need to come up with category theory proofs to be considered a technical genius.

Terry does shit at an OS PhD level.

Most pre-industrial era mathematicians were considered mad because the technology and wave of technology were not quite caught up yet. A lot of them were even placed in institutes and assylums.

It's neither an advantage or a disadvantage, because it doesn't matter for what it is.

If you use a computer for just making music, whether its hooked up to the net or not is totally irrelevant. Same with TempleOS.
>>
>>57772009
it doesn't fucking matter
realistically TempleOS is an environment for practicing programming

incidentally it's a good interface for x86_64 programming

its use does not require networking

What kind of niche does TempleOS fit in?
>>
>>57772086
>incidentally it's a good interface for x86_64 programming
Uh, what? To write assembly you need an assembler and text editor (e.g. nasm and emacs). You don't need a special OS.
>>
>>57772096
practicing programming, how many ways does it need to be said?

Educational. It is, for learning C, what things like the Apple 2 or Micro were for BASIC.

>>57772118
no shit
what im saying is the environment that TempleOS provides is nice for writing x86_64, i just use it as a fun IDE, runs well enough through virtualbox

dont be fooled, im not trying to shill templeos as anything other than a novelty (even terry himself mentions this) but saying it's totally useless has no merit

>>57771796
He bypasses the translation lookaside buffer entirely by doing away with a separate virtual memory space for each process, it's just one big map of virtual memory. In order to have multiple programs run in the same address space dynamically, they need to be relocatable (i.e. you can drop it anywhere in ram and if you jump to it's entrypoint, it will run correctly). To compile code to be relocatable you need to use relative jumps instead of absolute jumps (i.e. jump forward sixteen instructions in memory instead of jump to memory location 15324). Relative jumps have a maximum distance of 2gb, so he just says all the code should be in the first two gigs of ram, which is plenty.

The reason the code is faster is because he can bypass the tlb, not because he uses relative32 jumps.

Hope that helps. For more information see the wikipedia page on the translation lookaside buffer

>>57772706
I assume that it gave him the motivation to make TempleOS. Sane people usually don't have the motivation to make something as ingenious like that completely from scratch. If he was sane he might have used languages that already exist or something.

I always think that also about mathematicians who do really high level shit. Like, where you don't produce anything cool or interesting for months or years only to finally prove something over pages and pages.

The man is a crazy genius. I might not like his operating system but it's really impressive. I like that it's open source too. I wonder if we could convince Terry to let /g/ help. We could take Temple OS, improve upon it until we end up at 2005ish Mac OS level, then make sure it supports Libreboot and Coreboot systems only. We could take Riffle and build our own internet which the new Temple OS would be able to access. We will always make sure Terry has access to the source code for everything because he seems pretty trustworthy for a schizophrenic guy. Anyone else interested in doing this?
