Ladies and gentlemen- prepare yourself for a glimpse into an alternative timeline. A timeline of the win that was never won. A piece of history that is almost forgotten- a vision so big a micro company could never complete it. A vision created by the architect of architects
A vision that was so much ahead of its time, we are still trying to catch up. A vision by a man that did not just want to create an operating system- but an operating system for operating systems. A vision that is the reason we today have linux kernel as just another subsystem
A vision that would never pass in todays world- a vision that saw everything as objects. In this platonic object orientated vision a filesystem only catering to files is a laughable concept. Why wouldnt you want to embed you OLE objects directly into the file system?
what is a file really? if not just a object that you dont know the type of. Thinking about it- isnt the idea of having a filesystem that do not understand the context of the files what really is absurd?
Why should it be any diffferent listing files in a folder to listing your estates in an excel sheet or your emails in the inbox?
I am talking about the OOOG- the original object orientated gangsta. My man: David Cutlerpic.twitter.com/7fNXaFyXLa
I proudly present- a first time outside MS HQ some glimpses into the win that was never won. https://pastebin.com/DNGLmf3U Reading that source you feel like you are in Redmond back in 96- faint cocaine induced ramblings abouts developers can be heard echoing in the hallways
Yarh- so the basic structures and layouts are not different to what we have todayhttps://pastebin.com/RUAju26L
https://pastebin.com/TjSPkFn6 This do not look familar- but ive never seen the code for how thats done, so dont know if that different?
Cairo project? Wasn't most of that tech spun into search, bing, SQL, SharePoint in the end?
that is what the official storyline is I guess- but i dont really belive that. A very interesting part of history though
