Hey Terry,
How did you learn the skills necessery to make TempleOS?
Collage Os class doesnt even nearly cut it
Btw, Im watching youre videos on HolyC command line and the one editor idea seems great, nice going

>>70I was lucky enough to work for Ticketmaster for six years. I did a lot of assembly programming. They had a VAX operating system. My boss wrote our pascal compiler. I got to see professionals at work.
I took 5 assembly courses in school.

Have you seen this Lisp Operating System? It's not as complete as temple os and a lot slower, but it's good!

>>71Terry, I'm a CSE major at ASU. Which elective courses would you recommend for me? Have you considered doing any talks as alumni over at ASU?

>>78I think they're all different. That was 25 years ago. I learned enough digital design to hook microcontrollers like 8051 and 68000 with glue 74LS logic up to RAM, ROM, and devices. Now, they don't even have serial ports on PCs. USB is too complicated.
I stayed up-to-date with x86_64 assembly. I wrote a compiler and assembler. My generation all learned assembly. Today, it's rare, for good reason. It's very rare for my generation to know 64-bit, but I do.
Here's a quiz I made that has the gotchas of 64-bit x86.

>>79An assembler must be difficult. That sounds interesting how you were able to do that. Digital design is great, but I've mostly stuck to microcontrollers and FPGAs. At ASU they teach MIPS briefly - it's not really a big thing. They emphasize how it can be applied to x86 and stress how C compilers can be faster than just writing pure assembly. Thanks for the write up, I've been following your videos for about a year and a half now. Hopefully one day I can crack through Holy C and see how you did it.
