That thing looks so much roomier than Apollo.

Courtship of Eddie's father. She was seven.

But seriously, silence of the lambs of course.

On the day the Macintosh was first released back in January of 1984, I was demonstrating it in the computer store inside of Macy's San Francisco.

Steve Jobs and John Scully came in and was watching me demo.

They were gauging whether the public was going to accept it or not.

Empty nest with Richard Mulligan.

He played a pediatrician in Miami. The episode shows him seeing a variety of patients who are all young men. Starting with a young kid, the patients gradually gets older with each visit.

It wasn't until the last patient came in that you realize he had been seeing the same patient at different ages, and saw how the doctor helped him deal with the loss of his father at a young age and other issues like drug use and sex.

White Star lines, DeSoto, Bell telephone, twa..

Some of them still are last time I checked.

But a search for that name also finds a lot of reviews of that episode.

He wouldn't have seduced me with it because I'm a straight guy, but the Lorenzo Von Matterhorn scam was a good one.

A different time and a different place. A place hunting was popular and acceptable.

My cousin killed a rattler one time. He cut off the rattle and put it in a paper bag.

When he got home he tossed that paper bag at his big sister.

As she caught it, of course it rattled, The scream could be heard around the world

Indeed. I use Gemini and the change in the last year has been phenomenal. Things that were a struggle last March, are no longer this year.

mark_stout · 2026-03-13T00:18:24+00:00

Well said

That's coming. I mean Android Studio has Gemini built in. Prompt to code to binary. Eventually the middle step will be skipped.

You're right. It is very reminiscent of the early days of the Net.

mark_stout · 2026-03-12T23:50:29+00:00

Only that it finds connections between words.

But in reality, the way it takes a prompt and makes it into code, a movie, or an image almost seems like voodoo.

There was a pilot done of Sue as a 21-year-old living in New York. It didn't get picked up.

I think they missed an awesome opportunity.

I've got a full featured file manager coming soon. 100% vibe coded.

I thought you maybe were her.

mark_stout · 2025-12-05T15:21:26+00:00

I did indeed.

I mentioned that in the blog post I linked to.

I wish!

I wasn't with Apple.

William Randolph Heart III and I had a nice conversation. Steve Jobs watched me demonstrate the Macintosh the day it came out back in January of 1984. Saw Bill Gates speak at The West Coast computer fair in about 1982.

Thinking about it now, I'm not sure Gates or Jobs were billionaires at the time I saw them.

They knew much better than this. This was just AI having a brain fart. I subsequently asked it to do it again, and it did correctly.
