This assessment is a bit unfair. Especially when comparing it to Linux - it's apples to oranges. It was never meant to be like that. However, the kernel itself of TempleOS is 64-bit and multicore, so it's totally capable of WAY WAY more than what terry did with it. It was arbitrarily limited to 640 by 480 because Terry said God wanted that, but honestly would be perfectly capable of running a GUI and a window manager just like Linux or Windows. The fact it looks so old and dated is simply cause he's using the BIOS screen 12h which is built into all modern motherboards and doesn't require any drivers at all. One could certainly write a driver to run a modern graphics card and it would behave just like a modern OS. While true that TempleOS in it's current form, is pretty much useless, the foundation and the principles behind it are groundbreaking and could be useful in other scenarios. For example, the language (HolyC) could be used on it's own. In fact, the compiler has been isolated from the OS and can run on Linux or other operating systems. It's a great improvement over the C language and could be comparable to something such as Google Go. Secondly, the OS actually compiles itself in it's own language. I can see the Holiness in it. It's like it just "is", like "I am that I am". This concept has never been done before. I think that it would be great to have a new OS to compete with Linux and Windows because they are both bloated AF these days.
yeah the video is like "there are no productivity apps" and it's like why would you need this? It's not going to deployed at a company or something. It's more like a religious art project mixed with a revival of older style of computing which didn't have so many platforms on top of each other. TBH when I use old computers, I can feel the "holiness" as the machine itself reacts to the computer code in real time. A revival of that kind of computer is something that I think many people want, and something that making platforms more secure has taken away, and younger generations don't get to experience. Terry himself says as much when he talks about Linux, though his "CIA" language choice makes it hard to understand.
@@LethalBubbles Totally. I'm a programmer today only because of DOS and BASIC. If I hadn't experienced coding like this and instead was told to start with python like everybody encourages young people to do these days, I wouldn't have found it that interesting. The instant feedback and simplicity that older systems offer is what made programming fun for me. Having to download a bunch of black box libraries just to put some primitive graphics on the screen is annoying.
Davis clearly didn't give a damn about money. He just wanted to do something meaningful - and I think he succeeded. As rich as bill gates or any of these 'tech geniuses' may be, no one actually likes them, and they'll be forgotten in time, but an individual as unique as Terry Davis will live on forever.
I recently found this channel and I have to say it's incredible well produced and I'm still surprised this channel doesn't have more subscribers, you really deserve more recognition, amazing content and you got a new subscriber
He has another channel ab programming, I forget what it’s called but he has such a recognizable voice that once you see one of his videos you’ll recognize it immediately- that channel is much bigger but he hasn’t used his brand to expand this channel
TempleOS wasn’t finished until 2013. The first PC’s with 64 bit architecture came out in 2003. It took him 10 years to make it. I believe he did build it for 32-but and then ported it later.
It could be created with the same purposes not as an operating system but as an application under another operating system. As that purposes was clearly (for me) to provide a development environment with specific characteristics as a limited resolution an number of colours and a specific programming language, a user application under a common used operating system would cover the purposes. And as it lacks some convenient features like internet connection, it is used commonly under a virtual machine under another operating system, so it is at the end the way it is used. But perhaps it planned to extend it over the years to make it able to use it as a usual operating system. Who knows. I see a pedagogical potential in it. I mean it could be used by someone to learn programming.
I’m glad I found out about this guy. Better late than never, rip terry davis I love his quote about a genius wants things simple while idiots want things complicated.
1) He was not a drug user... this is a gross misrepresentation of schizophrenia. 2) Temple was never meant to go online. Comparing it to anything else that can is obscene. 3) Operating systems have been built (and forked) just for gaming. 4) Measuring impact doesn't yield much? Wtf? Is this even a tech channel? Do you actually understand how brilliant this endeavor was? The compiler bit is as much a joke as it isn't. It's baffling if you understand the magnitude of this feat.
If anyone ever has anytime watch terry davis life advice sums everything up in a intricate and loving way as if he is giving the advice to himself but yeah.
I know very little about computer science, but I study psychology of religion, & Terry Davis expresses some pretty brilliant theology.

The sound effect at 1:03 and onwards is very loud and annoying compared to the voice. There isn't one language called assembly, every processor architecture has its own assembly language. How did you come up with this weird idea that MS-DOS outperforms TempleOS in every aspect? Have you ever looked at the commands and system calls that DOS provides? Seems more the other way round to me. The only thing that stands out to me is the printer support of DOS. Why do you say that no gaming OS exists? Most modern game consoles run their own gaming OSs. Also, you can do low level gaming programming for games on the usual Desktop OSs as well. It's just that you don't get the performance boost which you get from ring-0, identity-mapping and cooperative multitasking.

Temple OS is like a programming monolith in terms of achievement, nothing more and nothing less. Just goes to show you can have the talent but if the help and opportunities are not there you can sink in this life.

Rev 21:12" The city had a great and high wall with twelve gates inscribed with the names of the twelve tribes of Israel and twelve angels at the gates. 13 There were three gates on the east, three on the north, three on the south, and three on the west." Draw a square, put 3 gates evenly spaced on each side, draw a line between opposite gates to make a grid. Count the squares in the grid. 16. Hexadecimal. Heaven is a time machine. A Google for history. A massive human scaled synthesis of reality. Mr.Davis was working on time travel.
@@aaronjennings8385 time travel is impossible. If someone goes back in time to change something they are in a loop and it also means free will doesn't exist. Time travel in the sense you are talking about goes against the laws of physics and reality in general

The future is fixed. Fated. That's part of a concept called Metanoia. Besides, I never said anyone could change anything. My point is that time travelers can live forever.
Why do religious people think, something makes somebody atheist? You are born an atheist, and it's your parents (usually) who make you believe in god, it's not the other way...

But i don't think benefits of religion are greater than negatives anymore...

unfortunately for you tech stories, he was inspired by god 100% fact, and he's extremely discredited because of his mental illness, and the evil dont want you to know that he was smart, and the evil definitley doesnt want you to know he was inspired by god
The problem with TempleOS is that it doesn't even seem to have an audience. Like, who was he dedicating his time for? You gotta program to solve someone's problem Also, it just makes no sense that he went out of his way to make that horrible outdated interface. Modern CPUs are fast enough to software render a windows-like desktop no problem and AABB-point testing is a joke to implement. Like, literally 4 comparisons in the 2D case
It was his place for dedication and worship to god, he literally called it Gods Temple. He used it to communicate to "God" via random word strings and for that case it worked fine. Also he claimed the resolution and colors were dictated by God himself

My belief is that he was just poor. There's no such thing as drug-induced psychosis. By and large, you're just drunk. There's no such thing as a genetic link to psychosis. Or really?

I don't just cost me. Gets ripped away from you. That makes you stressed out. And then you do crazy s*** and believe crazy s*** But it's because you're poor and the whole point of being smart. Is it's supposed to make you wealthy. All mental ill people are just poor people who are living in a tragic. Environment with tragic circumstances. And then of course, their tragic outcomes. Let's make this very clear anyone who believes it a genetic link to. Mental health disorders is both has a strong affinity for what the nazis believed in eugenics and also does not believe in going with the actual available evidence, which now we have none. Technically speaking. We have some lose evidence that there's epigenetic problems there, but there's nothing there. There's no confirmative proof that mental health. Anything is genetic.

I think that it would be great to have a new OS to compete with Linux and Windows because they are both bloated AF these days.
yeah the video is like "there are no productivity apps" and it's like why would you need this? It's not going to deployed at a company or something. It's more like a religious art project mixed with a revival of older style of computing which didn't have so many platforms on top of each other. TBH when I use old computers, I can feel the "holiness" as the machine itself reacts to the computer code in real time. A revival of that kind of computer is something that I think many people want, and something that making platforms more secure has taken away, and younger generations don't get to experience. Terry himself says as much when he talks about Linux, though his "CIA" language choice makes it hard to understand.
@@LethalBubbles Totally. I'm a programmer today only because of DOS and BASIC. If I hadn't experienced coding like this and instead was told to start with python like everybody encourages young people to do these days, I wouldn't have found it that interesting. The instant feedback and simplicity that older systems offer is what made programming fun for me. Having to download a bunch of black box libraries just to put some primitive graphics on the screen is annoying.
I'm still chuckling at "holy C"...
He's the weird al of coders. Misunderstood genius.
Ted kazinsky of the programming world?
Possibly
Thank you for doing a video on our beloved Saint
Davis clearly didn't give a damn about money. He just wanted to do something meaningful - and I think he succeeded. As rich as bill gates or any of these 'tech geniuses' may be, no one actually likes them, and they'll be forgotten in time, but an individual as unique as Terry Davis will live on forever.
I added in networking and basic GPU support. He coding is definitely odd, yet efficient in that same vein
>'16-bit color'
nope
Rest in Peace Terry
Now terry Davis meet god in heaven
I recently found this channel and I have to say it's incredible well produced and I'm still surprised this channel doesn't have more subscribers, you really deserve more recognition, amazing content and you got a new subscriber
He has another channel ab programming, I forget what it’s called but he has such a recognizable voice that once you see one of his videos you’ll recognize it immediately- that channel is much bigger but he hasn’t used his brand to expand this channel
Arron Jack, that’s the TH-cam channel
I would give this a four star rate as of the old youtube system.
How did he make a 64 bit system. ? Thats what he have now
the os was made originally on 32 bit, he ported it to 64 bit later on
TempleOS wasn’t finished until 2013. The first PC’s with 64 bit architecture came out in 2003. It took him 10 years to make it. I believe he did build it for 32-but and then ported it later.
It could be created with the same purposes not as an operating system but as an application under another operating system. As that purposes was clearly (for me) to provide a development environment with specific characteristics as a limited resolution an number of colours and a specific programming language, a user application under a common used operating system would cover the purposes. And as it lacks some convenient features like internet connection, it is used commonly under a virtual machine under another operating system, so it is at the end the way it is used. But perhaps it planned to extend it over the years to make it able to use it as a usual operating system. Who knows. I see a pedagogical potential in it. I mean it could be used by someone to learn programming.
I just found out who Terry Davis was. Time for the rabbit hole.
He was diagnosed with schizophrenia when he was 3 years old
I’m glad I found out about this guy. Better late than never, rip terry davis I love his quote about a genius wants things simple while idiots want things complicated.
Just found your channel, great stuff! Keep up the excellent work!
Ur pfp is scaring me
He built his own compiler, ya glowies!1!1!!
1) He was not a drug user... this is a gross misrepresentation of schizophrenia.
2) Temple was never meant to go online. Comparing it to anything else that can is obscene.
3) Operating systems have been built (and forked) just for gaming.
4) Measuring impact doesn't yield much? Wtf? Is this even a tech channel? Do you actually understand how brilliant this endeavor was? The compiler bit is as much a joke as it isn't. It's baffling if you understand the magnitude of this feat.
He looks a lot like Daniel Day lewis!
daniel day lewis as terry davis when?
@@zm1786 looking forward to it 😂
Oh GOD, I really feel proud living in this era that such people existed.
If anyone ever has anytime watch terry davis life advice sums everything up in a intricate and loving way as if he is giving the advice to himself but yeah.
3:02 looks so much like Frank Zappa
Drugs can exacerbate existing schizophrenia, not cause it.
i really believe terry davis was a genius
RIP Legend 🙏🙏
Racist legend.
He almost built a 3d printer bro it’s a CNC Milling machine that’s subtractive manufacturing not additive you don’t know what you’re talking about
What a beautiful ode!
Well done, subbed
How long are we gonna use random Satoshi's picture, who is not even involved with the project? xD
RIP King Davis
breaks my heart every time
and dont even get me started about these CIA n... jkd
Underrated channel, Rarely finding interest on TH-cam lately but you are doing it
I know very little about computer science, but I study psychology of religion, & Terry Davis expresses some pretty brilliant theology.
The sound effect at 1:03 and onwards is very loud and annoying compared to the voice.
There isn't one language called assembly, every processor architecture has its own assembly language.
How did you come up with this weird idea that MS-DOS outperforms TempleOS in every aspect? Have you ever looked at the commands and system calls that DOS provides? Seems more the other way round to me. The only thing that stands out to me is the printer support of DOS.
Why do you say that no gaming OS exists? Most modern game consoles run their own gaming OSs. Also, you can do low level gaming programming for games on the usual Desktop OSs as well. It's just that you don't get the performance boost which you get from ring-0, identity-mapping and cooperative multitasking.
HE DIDN'T LOSE HIS MIND HE LOST HIS WILL TO LIVE, DIED TO LIVE AGAIN SIMPLE. I don't have much experience with biology but due to his isolation and not doing social activities couldn't that trigger a form of Schizophrenia? Especially in his case or the case of others with high IQs or higher insights of things vs others can lead to a very lonely state... a smart/wise man living in a sad confused world on the road of brain rot from overload information and disinformation. I can relate to this to a degree I feel as if I need to dumb myself around others to keep up appearances and at times it gets old or can be fun... (sounds slightly crazy but It has to be done) I take the meds I'm given to help keep me grounded but in reality the loneliness in the terrible state of the world... I could see why a man like Terry Davis was on a quest to complete his os felt he had no longer nothing to live for.. he did the most sane thing a person would do. Live with the idea of having nothing to live for or have something to die for. It's not crazy it's real so real that the sheeple will never understand the complex in anyway. Or on a optimistic side maybe some will.
That was not a pic of Satoshi
Temple OS is like a programming monolith in terms of achievement, nothing more and nothing less. Just goes to show you can have the talent but if the help and opportunities are not there you can sink in this life.
Not help and opportunities but the common sense to take on worthwhile sustainable projects
I would love for somebody to get hold of the code, and turn it into a useful operating system.
the code is open source
@@uniqueprogressive9908 Exactly
Overdid it with the sound effects. The audio isn't mixed well
Didn't they kill the guy?
nice editing
Doctors, why don’t you study an ant colony.
eueueueheheueheueuhh
Your editing, SFX, and pacing are all HIGH ENERGY!
However, you sound like you'd rather be talking about anything else...
He is a human rights supporter and had been raising awareness. And the hand of God.
That's the wrong Satoshi Nakamoto. Opinion discarded.
i dont know if you will see this, but if you do, i have a quick request. I'm working on a general blog dedicated to programming, and I'm wondering if you can link me some sources. Much Appreciated!
Terry Davis was clearly a targeted individual with V2K
The quality man
If that damned disease hadn't of taken him we might be posting on DAVIS model machines right now.
I'd like to think in some other universe Terry is a billionaire tech mogul. Still making beer runs though.
This is a cool video I can’t believe this is the first comment I would expect this to have like 300k views
Why measure succes on contribution to technology? I wouldnt even think that there is anything sad here at all. What ruins it for me is the fact that he mastrubated on camera, regulary.
That’s because he probably built a ai brain
Rev 21:12" The city had a great and high wall with twelve gates inscribed with the names of the twelve tribes of Israel and twelve angels at the gates. 13 There were three gates on the east, three on the north, three on the south, and three on the west."
Draw a square, put 3 gates evenly spaced on each side, draw a line between opposite gates to make a grid. Count the squares in the grid.
16. Hexadecimal.
Heaven is a time machine. A Google for history. A massive human scaled synthesis of reality.
Mr.Davis was working on time travel.
Do you actually believe this
@xoan7278 yes, I do, I have personally seen part of it. The point is prophecy. Difficult concept?
@@aaronjennings8385 time travel is impossible. If someone goes back in time to change something they are in a loop and it also means free will doesn't exist. Time travel in the sense you are talking about goes against the laws of physics and reality in general
@xoan7278 Right, people who say that time travel allows for changes to be made in the past are describing a paradoxical scenario.
Prophecy is about preordained events. The past can't be altered. The future is fixed. Fated. That's part of a concept called Metanoia.
Besides, I never said anyone could change anything. My point is that time travelers can live forever.
@@aaronjennings8385 I wouldn't say they live forever as their mind is transferred
How do you not have more views?!
What a man he was, gone too soon...
Why do religious people think, something makes somebody atheist? You are born an atheist, and it's your parents (usually) who make you believe in god, it's not the other way... My parents never forced me to be an atheist, and I'm pretty much sure, i can just start to belive in god any time i want... But i don't think benefits of religion are greater than negatives anymore... With educated society we have (middle school is pretty much enough in this case) people, police, and law system, we don't need to believe in Sky Daddy, to know that they are supposed not to do something..... There is no need for it, and it keeps being highly corrupted and pushing against progress
go back to r/atheism
@@ad8012 Whats that?
Holy Crap !!!
unfortunately for you tech stories, he was inspired by god 100% fact, and he's extremely discredited because of his mental illness, and the evil dont want you to know that he was smart, and the evil definitley doesnt want you to know he was inspired by god
Amen brother. Davisanism is the way
At leas it's unique.
Yes. *God Tier* .
Thats crazy, but do you make your own compiler?
terry davis was better than God
God i hate frasier.
Shhh! Schitzophrenic programmer is talking!
Listen and learn!
Inaccurate, bias, and thoughtless "documentary". Not ever watching this channel again.
Absolute legend Terry, absolute legend, it's so impressive, but just so ooo shit
Nice video but please get a new microphone.
Genuis
Terry was probably the greatest programmer of his time. He was a genius, you are a definitely not
The problem with TempleOS is that it doesn't even seem to have an audience. Like, who was he dedicating his time for? You gotta program to solve someone's problem
Also, it just makes no sense that he went out of his way to make that horrible outdated interface. Modern CPUs are fast enough to software render a windows-like desktop no problem and AABB-point testing is a joke to implement. Like, literally 4 comparisons in the 2D case
It was his place for dedication and worship to god, he literally called it Gods Temple. He used it to communicate to "God" via random word strings and for that case it worked fine. Also he claimed the resolution and colors were dictated by God himself
@@mimonbaraka5454mental health and belief in god, especially Christianity, are definitely linked. If you go to a mental health institution, you’ll see that many of the patients there are highly religious, their actions say otherwise but that’s what they spout. Says something about it imo
@@franciscvmpbell Source: Trust me bro
@@franciscvmpbell all I know religious people are smarter. At least they don’t believe that the universe is a random explosion and random rocks somehow created life
@@Happys_Art that’s just factually incorrect, the Big Bang has practically been proven. A more insightful argument would be what caused it, imo a being or essence we’d deem as God. I’d say as a whole both groups are the same, and both are a little deluded, there’s truth on both sides of the religious debate. We won’t know though, can only theorise. But in a near infinite universe surrounded by an infinite void with other near infinite universes, there’s almost certainly something we’d deem as a God. Wether or not it’s what people think is the question.
My belief is that he was just poor. There's no such thing as drug-induced psychosis. By and large, you're just drunk. There's no such thing as a genetic link to psychosis. Or really? Any mental illness that we know of and we don't have that information so don't go on. What really happened was he was not successful. And when you are gifted and you're not successful. I don't just cost me. Gets ripped away from you. That makes you stressed out. And then you do crazy s*** and believe crazy s*** But it's because you're poor and the whole point of being smart. Is it's supposed to make you wealthy. All mental ill people are just poor people who are living in a tragic. Environment with tragic circumstances. And then of course, their tragic outcomes. Let's make this very clear anyone who believes it a genetic link to. Mental health disorders is both has a strong affinity for what the nazis believed in eugenics and also does not believe in going with the actual available evidence, which now we have none. Technically speaking. We have some lose evidence that there's epigenetic problems there, but there's nothing there. There's no confirmative proof that mental health. Anything is genetic.
I have a lot of respect for this video
Nice try, but you don't know OS basics, i can tell.
This video sucks
worlds best programmer according to non-programmers
then show us what you have done? show us your github links?
@@mchi2214 Notice how he didn’t respond
You go on to say nothing about the "CIA N!993Rs" as he called the Behaviorial Insights, and Risk Management operations he would have to deal with, or the influence they may have had on his mental state. It's a bit of a slimer; this video.
I have never seen the videos where he masturbated in honour of the science girl. That is a big loss.
so close. so far.
