        So what you’re saying is that… he is either from, belongs to, or should be placed on…

        … another plane of existence?

        There we go, there, that actually makes sense to me, thank you!

        I want to know what a corpo hobbyist traditionalist language is though, lol.

        Like uh… I make vba / excel macros in my spare time for fun, lol?

          That’s where retrocomputing comes into play I guess, Haha!

          Those people running Windows 2000 or XP on old computers or VMs and making old-school dotnet web forms apps for it.

          I can imagine myself doing this one day, just for nostalgia. 😄

      Maximum freedom, and somehow joining the maximum points on the tradition and disruption axes, forcefully bending the chart into some sort of cylinder

        Eh, I wouldn’t say TempleOS is disruptive. It was literally started off as a modern-day C64 successor. So, tradition all the way.

          Pasting objects into text files is pretty disruptive. The only other coding editor I know that can do that is DrRacket with images. I mean the guy invented an entire OS, C variant, several programs… all incompatible with traditional ones, simply because of his unique personal beliefs.

            It’s still text with some formatting underneath, though, just like HTML. Actually, in HTML we already have it in form of contenteditable attribute. You can straight up paste images and move other html elements into elements with it. I just checked, you can even do this with full on canvas elements and animated webgl views if you wanted to for some reason, though the code must be adjusted to account for it. I have yet to see it being useful and not a liability, though.

      That’s just the Emacs logo in the top-left. At least I assume Emacs has a terminal since there’s that old “Vim proverb” about Emacs being a “great OS, it just lacks a good editor.”

    I think there’s a healthy amount of bs in there (Chrome, C# as traditional?), but some of it checks out. I like a mix of old and new but try to stay away from proprietary. Current favorites are probably Emacs, NixOS, and Rust.

        No, I mean the whole chart should be rotated, including the labels. I want “freedom” to be across the bottom and “proprietary” to be across the top, so that it matches “libertarian” and “authoritarian” on the political compass.

        (“Tradition” and “disruption” don’t map to “left” and “right” quite as well, but if it were exact it would just be the political compass instead of just analogous to it.)

        I had a couple of jobs that only allows Macs. It was horrible. The M1 Mac couldn’t do 3 monitors(two side by side and main monitor). What kind of “PRO” system doesn’t allow 3 monitors?!?!

          I remember using 3 on Windows 7 in like 2015. That’s crazy. And I think I could open the laptop to get 4. This was an IBM Thinkpad with a dock. I wonder if USB C and dongles have made it harder somehow?

    Freedom is to proprietary as libertarian is to authoritarian. Tradition is to distruption as political right is to political left. Better would be for the x axis to be left-to-right disruption->tradition and the y axis to be bottom-to-top freedom->proprietary. So, rotated 90° counterclockwise and then mirrored left-to-right.
