From the Depths of Hell...
Where it began
I am an old nerd. I first learned programming on a Mini Computer...
No I don't mean a portable computer, and I definitely do not mean a laptop.
The Mini Computer was a UNIX system...
That is right I am so old my highschool taught Basic, Fortran, Cobol and Pascal on a Unix system and thin clients
Where it continued
Then there was the time of University... Once again UNIX
Where it changed
It was the age of the the AOL.
The beginning of the Web. And suddenly everyone is working in Visual Basic, Visual C++
There is even a Visual Pascal... Pascal!
Windows Ruled the World...
BeOS and Linux tried to fight...
Mac was dying... The great Visionary exiled from Apple
Visual Studio was King,
Microsoft has a Microsoft version of Java...
Open Source a dying sacrifice
BSD Reborn
Microsoft and Bill Gates are God-Emperor of Computers
When suddenly the Exile returns and a dying Apple is reborn
This lead to OSX this lead to XCode and Objective C
Apple following the Roadmap of Microsoft
iDevice my Device
The era of the SmartPhone and the Tablet dawns
Most people barely use Laptops or Desktops unless its for "Work" or tasks that need a lot of power or add-ons
The age of Touch truly begins and again Visual IDEs are King
The Visionary has passed beyond the veil but still Apple rules all personal devices
Bill Gates has moved on to other passions and others rule Microsoft
The Internet is King
Change Burns
The year is 2018
Now we stand in a world where HTML has been replaced by CMS so completely, only geeks remember pure HTML.
Newspapers are nearly dead, Technology magazines truly and honestly are
iOS and Mac OS are beginning to merge
Linux is just about mainstream
The rigors of super tiny computers have brought efficient programming back to the forefront
Windows is on its Sickbed
I raise the Daemon
The circle is complete.
This old nerd returns to relearn coding without the fancy IDE
This is my story of setting up FreeBSD 11 on an Acer Laptop
My return to OpenSource to Hack the World
