Unisciti alla ribellione su Telegram – Iscriviti alla newsletter – Supportaci su Patreon Questo è un fottuto insulto a tutto quello che ho raggiunto con quest'azienda. – Bill Gates, 14 febbraio 2000, durante il pitch del progetto Xbox. È un San Valentino di Sangue a Redmond. Il meeting da cui dipende l'approvazione del progetto Xbox non sta andando bene. Bill Gates e soci hanno bisogno di un contrappeso a quella PlayStation 2 che Sony sta iniziando a vendere chiamandola “Personal Computer”, però chi sta portando avanti il progetto è convinto che mettere in vendita una console su cui è installato Windows sia una cagata pazzesca. Nessuno vuole vedere i fogli di calcolo di Excel sulla TV di casa, sulla TV si gioca, cazzo! Nella timeline che conosciamo ad un certo punto la situazione si sblocca, perchè dopo lo sbotto di Bill Gates – che ritiene un fottuto insulto un'Xbox senza Windows – qualcuno ha il coraggio di dire “ma allora come la mettiamo con Sony?”. Ma cosa sarebbe successo se nessuno avesse detto quelle parole? Questo è Ucronie: narrative inaffidabili applicate ai videogiochi. E questa è la storia di cosa ci sarebbe potuto succedere se Microsoft non avesse creduto in Xbox, ma Valve sì.

Vor 30 Jahren gab es kein ChatGPT, kein Social Media, keine Smartphones, und nicht einmal Google. Es gab Telefonzellen. Und die Nachrichten wurden im Fernsehen vorgelesen oder in Printzeitungen gedruckt. Doch dann ging am 2. Februar 1995 derStandard.at online - und zwar als erste deutschsprachige Tageszeitung der Welt. Plötzlich gab es die Nachrichten auch am Personal Computer. Und schon bald darauf wurden die bis dahin stummen Leserinnen selbst zu Kommentatoren. Wir sprechen heute darüber, wie derStandard.at die Medienwelt revolutionierte und, wo er in weiteren 30 Jahren sein wird.

Clever Confidential is Clever's offshoot series, where we dig into the darker side of design - the shadowy, sometimes sordid tales hiding under a glossy topcoat of respectable legacy.In Episode 4: Olivetti and the Race to Create the First Personal Computer, host Amy Devers and writer Andrew Wagner unravel a captivating story that challenges our assumptions about the origins of the personal computer. Many credit Silicon Valley with this innovation, but should we really look elsewhere?Olivetti was founded in 1908 by Camillo Olivetti. This Italian powerhouse thrived under his son Adriano, who revolutionized industrial design with a human-centered approach, merging aesthetics with user experience. Olivetti became a titan in office machines and desktop computing, poised to lead the charge into a new technological era.But as Olivetti rises, dark clouds gather. Adriano and brilliant engineer Mario Tchou meet mysterious and untimely fates, shrouded in Cold War intrigue and fierce corporate rivalry. Despite these tragic losses, Olivetti unveiled the Programma 101 in 1965, hailed as the world's first desktop computer, forever altering our perception of technology.So why has Olivetti's remarkable legacy faded into obscurity? We peel back the layers of this enigma, revealing a web of intrigue—mysterious deaths, hostile takeovers, potential CIA involvement, and hidden narratives that reshaped the tech landscape and distorted our collective cultural memory.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Bernardo Huberman, Ph.D., a research physicist, expert on quantum networks, and vice president of CableLabs' Next-Gen Systems. We discuss his journey into science, beginning in South America, how a curiosity about physics led him to the United States, and how his hunger for studying novel problems guided him into fields like physics, computer science, biology, economics, and, most recently, quantum computing. He explains relativity theory, chaos theory, fractals, and quantum internet in terms anyone can understand. We explore how curiosity has continually guided his decisions about what to study and how to live, and how researching hard, even abstract, problems can serve as a model for staying grounded and enjoying everyday life. We also discuss meditation, spirituality, and why continually asking questions about how the world is organized can bring about an immense and lasting sense of meaning and joy.

INPUT (prompt), var1, var2! This week we read Apple computer inventor/Kathy Griffin's ex-boyfriend's memoir "iWoz: Computer Geek to Cult Icon: How I Invented the Personal Computer, Co-Founded Apple, and Had Fun Doing It." We create a code in order to discuss the evolution of Mac, insane tension between Woz and Steve Jobs, early Silicon Valley, scam-ass printers, how we used to fix our own TVs, Freemasons, and ask the ultimate question: does technology really help us or has it gone too far?Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/cbcthepodSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Clever Confidential is Clever's offshoot series, where we dig into the darker side of design - the shadowy, sometimes sordid tales hiding under a glossy topcoat of respectable legacy.In Episode 4: Olivetti and the Race to Create the First Personal Computer, host Amy Devers and writer Andrew Wagner unravel a captivating story that challenges our assumptions about the origins of the personal computer. Many credit Silicon Valley with this innovation, but should we really look elsewhere?Olivetti was founded in 1908 by Camillo Olivetti. This Italian powerhouse thrived under his son Adriano, who revolutionized industrial design with a human-centered approach, merging aesthetics with user experience. Olivetti became a titan in office machines and desktop computing, poised to lead the charge into a new technological era.But as Olivetti rises, dark clouds gather. Adriano and brilliant engineer Mario Tchou meet mysterious and untimely fates, shrouded in Cold War intrigue and fierce corporate rivalry. Despite these tragic losses, Olivetti unveiled the Programma 101 in 1965, hailed as the world's first desktop computer, forever altering our perception of technology.So why has Olivetti's remarkable legacy faded into obscurity? We peel back the layers of this enigma, revealing a web of intrigue—mysterious deaths, hostile takeovers, potential CIA involvement, and hidden narratives that reshaped the tech landscape and distorted our collective cultural memory.
