  1. Vom 386SX mit 2 MB RAM und 90-Minuten-Mandelbrot bis zum i9 mit NVMe-Speed und eigenen KI-Agenten: 30 Jahre Technik im Zeitraffer. Dazu Grafikkarten-Knappheit durch KI, Stromverbrauch, CUDA-Power und die Frage: Reicht ein Raspberry Pi für smarte Aufgaben? Eine persönliche Reise zwischen Retro-Nerdtum und Zukunft.

  7. Yesterday I visited the computer games museum 🕹🎮👾 in Berlin. It was a flashback in so many ways; I really enjoyed it.✨️ The highlight was my very first computer, with which I learned my very first programming language, #gwbasic. The Schneider CPC with its quite exotic 3-inch floppy disk drive. 💾

    Hands up, who knows GW-BASIC and maybe even used it?

  12. If you want to try my #msdos system info nonsense program for #gwbasic, it's now publicly available:

    https://git.rainbow-100.com/cgit.cgi/GWFetch/about/

    It's not tested everywhere, so I'm sure it'll have some problems.

  17. DR DOS detection in #gwbasic gwfetch needed some attention, but pretty happy with the results!

  22. I've been struggling for days with calling x86 assembly from within #gwbasic following the manuals, examples, etc. Today I finally noticed that variables' addresses in #gwbasic (via the VARPTR() function) just... change!

    I had a loop reading and poking data into an array to be executed as machine code, and, boom!, the address of the array changed because I did a simple operation also within the loop as a result of a conditional.

    I feel relieved that I sorted this out.

  25. #LLaMA 3 local-run #AI is pretty doggone good. Downloaded a 120B parameter Q6 model (this is ridiculous by consumer standards), and asked it to write a simple #GWBASIC program. I love to test AI on ancient programming languages. It wrote the simple program and it ran perfectly without edits! My PC did use a LOT of #solar energy, and 105 gigs of RAM + 24 gigs of VRAM 😁 NOW I WANT MORE 🤣

  28. New on the blog: I picked out a few bits of the old DOS BASIC programming experience and have will be writing about how I brought a few of them back into my modern work. This first article is technically a retrospective, because I've a bunch of the tooling I used behind the scenes on previous projects was inspired directly by its PLAY command.
