This book advocated a "convivial" approach to design which allowed users of technologies to learn about the technology by encouraging exploration, tinkering, and modification. Felsenstein had learned about electronics in much the same fashion, and summarized his conclusions in several aphorisms, to wit "In order t [06:09] kingoffrance o survive in a public-access environment, a computer must grow a computer club around itself." Others were "To change the rules, change the tools," and "If work is to become play, then tools must become toys." [06:09] kingoffrance maybe way too idealistic [06:09] kingoffrance but totally not mentioned [06:10] kingoffrance (following link) The book's vision of tools that would be developed and maintained by a community of users had a significant influence on the first developers of the personal computer, [06:11] kingoffrance maybe a little too "lefty" for some people, but hard not to say that seemed to have happened [06:12] kingoffrance quote Deschooling Society criticises modern society's institutional approach to education, an approach that constrains learning to narrow situations in a fairly short period of the human lifespan. [06:12] kingoffrance sound like activel was saying, all these things crammed into one short little curriculum ? :) [06:13] kingoffrance In fact, he called advocates of free-market education "the most dangerous category of educational reformers." a bit too far out there? look at private/public nowadays... [06:15] kingoffrance hard not to see prescience: His lifework's leading thesis is that Western modernity, perverting Christianity, corrupts Western Christianity. A perverse attempt to encode the New Testament's principles as rules of behavior, duty, or laws, and to institutionalize them, without limits, is a corruption that Illich detailed in his analyses of modern Western institutions, including education, charity, and medicine, among others. [06:17] *activelow is reading [06:17] kingoffrance wikipedia might have changed since i found that ....anyways, the basis was you own computers or they get "institutionalized" top-down i would say [06:17] kingoffrance they werent necessarily against putting them in schools [06:18] kingoffrance more about co-option is how i interpret [06:18] kingoffrance maybe the irony too, this was 1970s-ish....now we have woke vatican [06:18] kingoffrance i mean, its like a parellel universe reading this stuff lol [06:19] kingoffrance even if it was way too idealistic [06:19] kingoffrance we got some other vision of utopia it seems... [06:20] kingoffrance i have not studied these things, just read these little blurbs, my mind was blown [06:22] kingoffrance jobs or someone, would say computers in schools doesnt magically fix things. so i just found it a rarely-mentioned viewpoint [06:22] kingoffrance its not that it ruins the schools, it ruins the computers lol :) [06:22] kingoffrance wont someone think of the homebrew computers? lol [06:23] kingoffrance i can see how someone might find that "elitist" but again, i dont think that was the intention [06:23] kingoffrance quite the opposite, make sure knowledge didnt get "institutionalized" [06:23] activelow it ruins both: schools, computers, and the students [06:23] kingoffrance its like a venn diagram, this viewpoint seems not mentioned, outside the overton window lol [06:24] activelow https://j-core.org/turtle/prototype.jpg [06:25] kingoffrance i guess the other thing, public dispaly of computers, talk to ppl not into computers. thats very different than "everyone needs to know computers for your job" maybe so far out there nowadays, but i woudl trust these peopel more than so many others [06:26] kingoffrance i dont get the impression they were forcing computers on people, neither being unabomber. it was about keeping information for everyone [06:26] kingoffrance again, seems out side modern venn diagram of mentioned positions lol [06:26] kingoffrance *outside [06:26] kingoffrance a galaxy far far away, back before "institutionalization" [06:27] activelow i disagree with the political sentiment information wasn't available to everyone [06:27] kingoffrance well, they were worrid about the future i think, poorly phrased on may part [06:27] kingoffrance *worried [06:28] kingoffrance *my [06:29] kingoffrance when you add in the mastery learning type stuff, even "churches" do that now...it is really amazing [06:30] kingoffrance almost seems like the world generally got the total opposite system [06:30] kingoffrance hey hi [06:36] kingoffrance i used to have a book "computers and their uses" IIRC 1960s by an ibm employee, trying to tell the public what computers were. he was worried about tracking way back then -- hard to imagine coming from there [06:37] kingoffrance yes, above stuff does seem somewhat "politics" attached [06:38] kingoffrance winners write the history [06:40] kingoffrance i remember wozniak said in a video, there was a long time you could perhaps build a computer. but you couldnt get a single microprocessor for a decent price, only in bulk. [06:40] kingoffrance he implied big change was when you didnt have to bulk purchase to get a decent price [06:41] kingoffrance makes it sounds like it wasnt a technological limitation preventing "personal computer" [06:41] kingoffrance i dont think theyd even sell you some limited quantity, only bulk [06:42] activelow nowadays we've got "personal mainframes" each, "smart" phones [06:42] kingoffrance yep, went back to the mainframe model [06:42] kingoffrance brought to you by the people who did the 1984 ad [06:42] activelow which is, another irony, the industry cripples their peripherals to prevent attaching a keyboard and a screen [06:42] kingoffrance and others of course [06:45] kingoffrance if we believe wozniak, was always institutionalized in that sense [06:45] kingoffrance i think it was him, who said transistor changed everything [06:45] kingoffrance and what made that readily available: military, airforce maybe [06:46] kingoffrance this isnt an anti-military rant, just similar thing. 'technology exists' is very different than "readily available at decent price for the masses' [06:47] activelow billions of smart phones, with manframe scale processign power, which could do less than an altair 8800 since these lack a keyboard and a screen attached [06:48] activelow excessive political, social and economic perversion ● Aug 21 [08:06] activelow it isn't idealistic perspective at all, technical devices must be shipped with documentation, schematics and all required tools: the means of production [08:07] activelow this isn't some "lefty" idea either, although it is attributed to K.Marx , sillicaon valley captilsts are aware of their business habits to withhol them: the mans of production [08:07] kingoffrance yeah agree, it should be common sense [08:10] activelow if it is documented and i production facilities can be established domestically, i would favor a 300baud modem over optical fibre anytime, simplified speaking of cause [08:11] activelow same applies to any other microchip, peripherals [08:12] activelow x.25 remained in operation with "critical infrastructure" up until a few years ago, and this has reached a certain age [08:13] activelow and the "next generation" of the "internet" era will too, and i doubt a Z80 with capable programmers and engineers remained than [08:14] activelow then [08:14] activelow hey hi, we need an app to control this nuclear plant [08:14] activelow end of 2022 german plants are scheduled for shut down [08:14] activelow and the french one built currently didn't proceed as planned iirc? [08:18] kingoffrance https://www.theregister.com/2013/06/19/nuke_plants_to_keep_pdp11_until_2050/ [08:20] kingoffrance i dont know, but i think those types of critical things, is the same argument: they know how it works, for all its faults, the devil you know versus the one you dont [08:24] activelow pdp-11 code, probably not any of the original hardware [08:27] kingoffrance good point. i know there were clones, but i am too young :) ● Aug 21 [09:23] activelow maybe this is some decent introduction into programming? [09:23] activelow http://www.z80.info/zaks.html [09:24] activelow it isn't from the grounds up, missing circuit design beforehand, since digital circuit design is fundemental. [09:25] activelow may not hurt the concept to begin with z80 assembly, explain digital circuit and hardware design later, which is the basis for opcodes and assembly [09:25] activelow i think it is preferable to begin with simple digital circuits before assembly programming [09:26] activelow in parallel to intense lectures of mathematics [09:27] activelow this should be a solid basis [09:28] activelow this is a perspective the generation of 1980s computing is missing, what an insane chaos and clusterfuck a student is confronted with [09:29] activelow not at least german telecom university could arrange for a sane schedule anymore [09:29] activelow year 2001 already, when the course "telecommunications computer science" was established to face the challenges of the modern era [09:30] activelow the old lecture was more focused on analog electronics and signal processing [09:31] activelow and, i need to think about some distribution again [09:32] activelow ideally i could remove X11, gcc, replace most userspace with busybox etc. and a sane and simple c compiler and toolchain (none exists anymore) [09:47] *psydroid_ (~psydroid@cqggrmwgu7gji.irc) has joined #techpol [09:48] activelow such a device won't run linux, nonetheless, maybe this is the key: https://opencores.org/projects/a-z80 [09:48] activelow not sure how this could be deployed to an FPGA: https://opencores.org/projects/z80_vhdl [09:49] activelow add to this missing peripherals, rs232, vga video, floppy controller, keyboard controller [09:51] activelow 68k was known to run linux, not aware of any softcore options, yet as an introductory lesson z80 could be worth it, due to the available literature [09:52] activelow and then https://opencores.org/projects/ao68000 [09:54] activelow goes without saying a GCC is dead for homebrew [09:55] activelow given the insane complexity and chaos nowadays, assembly may be most fun ● Aug 21 [10:18] activelow of cause, none of this is "competitive" on "the market" ● Aug 21 [11:09] activelow kingoffrance: since you mentioned Lee Felsenstein https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Letter_to_Hobbyists#Reaction ● Aug 21 [12:03] *techrights_guest|62 has quit (Quit: Connection closed) [12:03] *techrights_guest|63 has quit (Quit: Connection closed) ● Aug 21 [15:00] MinceR > Western modernity, perverting Christianity, corrupts Western Christianity.
