Retrópolis - A cidade dos clássicos

Net als vorig jaar en het jaar daarvoor log ik vanaf vandaag even uit bij Twitter, Mastodon en tegenwoordig ook BlueSky. Het beviel me eerdere jaren goed. Ik onderken de waarde van deze platformen. En ik onderken ook dat één van deze platformen veel problematischer is in gebruik dan de ander. Dus even een reset, even een afstand van deze aandacht- en energie-slurpers is minstens net zo […]

E o que rolou no Computer History Museum recentemente? - Retrópolis

O CHM é um museu muito ativo, e sempre tem atividades interessantes. A gente também recebe informações a respeito dos seus projetos, mas nem sempre conseguimos falar tudo por aqui. Então, vamos a uma breve lista: O Furby, aquele brinquedo na forma de um bicho peludo, meio coruja, meio hamster, completou 25 anos. Lembra dele?

@fragefix das stimmt so nicht ganz. Sie bauten nicht den ersten Personal Computer (PC), denn das war der IBM PC. 1976 stellte Steve Wozniak den legendären Altair 8800 vor. Der erste Apple (Steve Wozniak, Steve Jobs und Ronald Wayne) war später der Apple I. Ein Einplatinen Computer der in Serie ging, jedoch noch kein Personal Computer.

I was re-reading part or Theodore Roszak's _The Cult of Information_ and was reminded of a criticism of David Graeber's synopsis about how Apple computers got started in contrast to how corporation generally work... Thanks to Roszak's mention of the 'Homebrew Computer Club' and Menlo Park, I'm catching up on the details that Graeber got wrong but the main contrast seems right.

March 5, 1975: A Whiff of Homebrew Excites the Valley

1975: The pioneering computer-hobbyist group, The Homebrew Computer Club, holds its first meeting in a Silicon Valley garage. From its ranks will emerge industry pioneers like Apple co-founders Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak and hacker John Draper, aka Captain Crunch. It started with a flyer just for geeks posted on bulletin boards (the cork kind). […]
