    I don't think Linus quite understood how amazing it was that Terry figured out a way to encode 3D rendered graphics in a text file lol

    Being a senior programmer, I know full well how surreal this guy's work is... It's like building a skyscrapper by yourself, barehanded.

    Can we take a moment to appreciate how Terry -- at the height of his schizophrenia -- still documented his code better than ~99% of developers?

    You might think that this is total garbage, but any programmer worth his salt can tell that terry was an absolute genius. Designing a system like this is not easy. Yes it's imperfect, but for a single person to design something this unique from scratch is just incredible in my opinion.

    Not only this man has written his own language, kernel and a compiler, he managed to introduce 3D shapes, pictures and sound files into ASCII format. That is beyond insane. He definitely deserves the title of "the smartest programmer who ever lived"

    I met Terry on a bus once while I was on my way to computer science class. He asked me if I was a federal agent, completely convinced. I had no idea who he was or what that interaction meant until much later. Truly haunting to think back on it.

    I remember reaching out to Terry just to see if he was OK, he seemed a bit scrambled at the time, and he was actually a genuinely nice person. Granted I have a bit of experience with schizophrenia after my best friend in highschool got it pretty seriously, so I have a high tolerance for psychosis, but he meant well. He was a genius trapped in a world of delusion and bad choices. The OS was nutty, but it was packed with interesting ideas and the poor guy actually deserved a bit of respect, not for making a functional OS, the thing was barely functional, but for actually trying out some genuinely interesting ideas. The beauty of science is, the experiment doesnt have to work to learn something from it, so its one of the great ironies of science that this schizophrenic religious dude was doing more science than most PhD weilding computer science departments will do in a lifetime. But oh man was he suffering. Schizophrenia can make life a living hell.

    Terry is a tragic case, if he didn't suffer from Schizophrenia, I have little doubt his name would be among the top tech giants we know today. Man was a phenomenal programmer.

    I am not the best programmer, but i know that creating an entire OS (and Kernel), compiler, Window-manager, file manager, etc from scratch alone takes an absolute genius

    Being reminded of what was lost with Terry's illness never ceases to make my heart ache. He had the brilliance of a natural born tinkerer and the drive of a man haunted by phantoms. The breadth and depth of his creation is truly hard to fathom. TempleOS is a unique product of a person who was desperately clinging to the only thing that still made sense to him.
