Ok, now ... where does TempleOS and HolyC belong on this chart?
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
contenteditableattribute. 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.Hrm ok so your model is less of a defined space a point can exist in, and is instead a topology that a point must exist on.
*Sigh*. Fine, let's introduce a z-axis specifically for Terry A. Davis.
So what you're saying is that... he is either from, belongs to, or should be placed on...
... another plane of existence?
lololololollool
Dead center with God
Why would god be a middledev?
Ah, so your idea is that they exist at a location with an imaginary component, they exist in an unvisualized, complex plane?
teeheehee
