@foone I once tried to take the output of a C++ to C translator and build it.Yeah, it was not good. (This was the SAS/C++ V7.0 compiler for OS/390, i.e., mainframe.).

@foone 20-bit addresses is the real horror. Should have been 16+16. System/360 had 15 of the 16 32-bit registers but only 4K displacement. (Eventually 31-bit in the 1980s, 64-bit in the early 2000s.)

@gsuberland @Rairii @GossiTheDog we’ve been seeing this for decades with boards of directors. The role of the BoD is a check on idiocy. But when the CEO is a board member, and develops a cult of personality, the directors become sycophants. And these days, C-levels become directors of other companies, so it becomes a mutual back scratch environment, to put it politely.

@shironeko @gsuberland @GossiTheDog @Rairii @JeffGrigg I hope some Ph.D. in a business school has studied this. But with dissertations locked behind firewalls…

@darkling @foone sure not 1 and 0? Get to the root of why teaching sand to think was a mistake that doomed the world.
