Oh oh, can we make sure the breath mints will transform your love life in 30 seconds or less? Can we? Can we? Huh? Huh?

It wasn't the aroma of mint that they were going emit.

"Order from Chaos" by Max Cooper and Maxime Causeret: [^].Quote: A collaboration between the UK-based electronic musician Max Cooper and the French motion graphics artist Maxime Causeret, Order from Chaos features an experimental soundtrack inspired by the concept of emergence accompanied by mesmerising representations of emergent systems, including the cooperation of simple cells, swarm behaviour and Alan Turing’s proposed mathematical theory of embryology. In the 1960's we could see these with our eyes closed

I must be a lot younger than you. In the '60s, the strongest drug that I used was chocolate.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I prefer the hex keyboard, CPU in load mode, no software involved.

My first job, we had a mini that could be programed from the flip switches on the front. There were some jobs that it was just easier to do with that then fire up terminals et al.

The original model indeed also had switches. The hex keyboard was an improvement. Internally, both connected in the same way and both could be used in 'load mode' or accessed as input ports when running the program.

Forget it. In the first lecture I ever heard the professor decided to start with something simple and proved the existence of magnetic monopoles[^] (Please no jokes that might discriminate someone from Poland!)
Anyway, you will not get far with a compass when we use those monopoles.

Yeah, but that's all quantum, so I'd just need a lot smaller compass.

No (our software is Windows only for now).

Thankfully no. I tried doing some Ruby on Rails programming on a Mac once, the keyboard drove me nuts, the OS drove me nuts, and of course RoR wasn't helping.

Yep.. I use the following tools:
- XCode (Swift for iOS)
- Xamarin Studio
- JetBrains Rider (ASP.NET Core)
- JetBrains WebStorm (for Angular 2 mostly)
Most of it works on Linux and Windows as well, with the exception of XCode
Ah, I see you have the machine that goes ping. This is my favorite. You see we lease it back from the company we sold it to and that way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.

Had to do a quick and dirty port of a .Net prog to Mac - one time demo. Figured ok, build a Mac VM (max 15 minute job for a VPC). What a nightmare, fart around trying magic and incantations to get the VM to work, then try to install xcode and xamarin, sorry this version needs that version - gives version umbers but when you look for it it's all sorts of stupid names like "Mountain Duck" and "Ill Clapitrap."
Unlike Win, finding an older versions for the mac is, well, it simply isn't. And joining their store thing, what a forking forkup of forking forks that is, they want to take over your life, own your email and contacts, own your phone even if it's droid, and sign you up to 1000 mailing lists every second screen, and then still install a boatload of sh*t on your PC... FFS fork that!
OK, find matching versions of OS and bits required, start over, (build new vm...) still a good full day to get it dev functional.
Finally got the app running on the VM, but still have to jump through hoops and straighten a carton of banana's to get it to function on the friends native mac, some sort of app wrapper required so you can install something you can double click on, plus runtime machine needs xcode installed (which doesn't add it to the path), blah, blah, bloody blah.... (In the end wrote a quick shell script and asked my friend to install xcode and run the app via file manager in his email attachments folder.)
Quick and dirty job on a mac: all up 4 days and literally a headache (windows equivalent: 4 minutes, maybe 10 min on a bad day). Admittedly I was just seat of the pantsing it, and trying to take shortcuts - didn't help, it's do it the apple way, or do it the apple way.
So much for xamarin being the magic making '.net easily portable'; porting .net apps developed on windows to the mac: as simple as house training a canary using the same methods used to house train a dog.
