PaulAUDIENCE
in 1973, December of 73.
PaulAUDIENCE
And I went there to service printers, and GE made a printer called a Terminet that was replacing Teletype.
PaulAUDIENCE
Back in the day, the police, hospitals, the fire department, insurance companies, everybody used Teletype.
PaulAUDIENCE
and they were noisy as the sound of a gun, whether they were printed or just sitting there idle.
PaulAUDIENCE
So I started doing it in field service, going to all these different places, and guess what? Way back in the 70s, MIT had an artificial intelligence lab using our printers.
speaker_0HOST
OK, now we get to the real aha moments of manipulation.
speaker_0HOST
Let's talk about the TTY machine handicap gag.
speaker_0HOST
This is this is purely exploiting systemic compassion.
speaker_1HOST
It truly is.
speaker_1HOST
So deaf people communicate with telcos using TTY machines, which usually connect at a very slow 300 bps baud rate.
speaker_0HOST
Right.
speaker_1HOST
And the telcos set aside special numbers with dedicated service reps to handle these inquiries.
speaker_1HOST
The investigator calls these specific lines using either a real TTY machine or just software emulation.

Cost drivers are labor, technology, telecom, and training.
Saleem AbdulrasoolGUEST
The command line environment is quite different.
Saleem AbdulrasoolGUEST
Windows, historically, doesn't have the same PTY, TTY concept that Unix does.
Saleem AbdulrasoolGUEST
And it traditionally didn't render the console using ANSI escape sequences the way Unix terminals do.
Saleem AbdulrasoolGUEST
It used proper Windows APIs for that.
Leo DionHOST
Okay.
Saleem AbdulrasoolGUEST
And that changed with the Windows terminal.
Saleem AbdulrasoolGUEST
Microsoft added the tooling and the API support to host enough of the TTY concept and moved over to ANSI escape based rendering.
Saleem AbdulrasoolGUEST
So the language support is great, but it's not quite apples to apples.
