  1. RE: mastodon.social/@stonetoolsblo

    I've been good friends with #VisiCalc over the past five years, but I've always turned my nose up at #Lotus123 for some reason. "Thinks he's so special. He's not special. Just a copycat wannabe jerk and..." well, I'll save all that for therapy.

    I finally broke down and learned it, and you know what? I didn't hate it. I liked it, even. Maybe I even... loved it?!

  2. RE: mastodon.social/@stonetoolsblo

    Today's AI boom is not the first, though it is definitely the biggest. Today we speak of systems being capable or incapable of AI. Back in the day, even the lowly #c64 was put to work in the #AI mines.

    I was curious to see how that worked, and to understand the original boom a little better. That led me into looking at Japan's "Fifth Generation Computing" initiative. I had no idea how spooked the West was by that announcement!

    Campbell's Soup, Sputnik, feline taxonomy, the movie PI, and a Connection Machine all make appearances in the newest post. I swear it makes sense when you read it!

  4. I've been working diligently on a #retrocomputing project which just soft-launched. You may shake your head, "Not another retro blog!" but I promise, this one's a little different; in-depth, hands-on examinations of the productivity software of the 8/16-bit era. It's called "Stone Tools"

  15. Heute im Rahmen der Autor:innentheatertage 2025
    Deutsches Theater Berlin
    AJAX UND DER SCHWAN DER SCHAM
    von #ChristopherRüping und Ensemble nach #Sophokles
    vom Thalia Theater Hamburg
