Why are people in the comments constantly calling this guy a genius?

Are they just memeing or did he actually do something impressive?

To be honest it's not a big deal to write your own OS. My college had a course where you wrote your own kernel and shit.

He's certainly smart and a good programmer but it's not that far out to write your own OS.

Terry's genius comes in all the memes he brings.

lurk moar

He made every single thing that goes into Temple OS. I'm not sure many people realise how monumental a task that is. It's kinda like saying "I built my own car from scratch", that's pretty damn impressive but im sure lots of people can do it. What Terry did is like saying "I built my own car and every single tool i used in the process.
It's ultimately pointless to complicate matters like that but to me it makes him a complete legend.

Yes, that's what people are parroting in every youtube comment. No elaboration on it though...

I dont see any way to elaborate. He is a smart guy who also happens to have a wacky personality.
Isn't that basically why stallman is praised by Sup Forums half the time?

Why would I kill myself? Here's my reasoning on why I wouldn't:

If I live, there's always a chance of having good feels.
If I die there is zero chance of having good feels.
Easy choice to not kill self.

he's a lolcow

that's basically it

everything is memeing on this board. terry is a retarded manchild just like stallman.

It's this level of autism that makes a programmer.

T. click the wrong board and lurked

but also when you die there is 0 chance of having miserable feels, which are stronger than any goodfeel you have felt or will feel

Feels are feels.

Like deanna troi once said "emotions are neither negative or positive" or something around them lines.

One feel is better than no feels.

Have you guys seen his webpage? He's fucking batshit insane : templeos.org/

>One feel is better than no feels.
I don't see why

>Why are people in the comments constantly calling this guy a genius?
because he's the "le CIA nigger man"

He wrote a GUI OS, HolyC, a compiler, RedFS, and his own graphics library.

>mfw I always assume "kys" was meant to mean "kiss".

Cool, see you in home room Monday. Good luck in Algebra 2!

CIA NIGGERS

>memebra
>memewo

So? Any developer worth a damn is able to do that, given enough motivation. I'm fascinated with his disorders, but overall it's just a "programmer gone mad" kind of thing, he didn't code anything extraordinary, he's just doing his thing.

Yeah because you surely are capable of doing all that =^D

I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all.

Terryfags are basically /r/pcmasterrace now

>encounter difficulty
>google solution

>it's not a big deal to write your own OS

then why is linux such an usable pile of shit?

checkmate CIA nigger.

pain without love

I didn't say it was easy to make a good universally usable OS

>The I noticed someone used a meme, meme

for the same reason people bang on glass at zoos.

Yeah.... hmmmm. You stumped me there.

>google solution
We'll call you.

i always thought star trek's portrayal of empaths was too positive. i mean, if we're talking relative level of empathy, wouldn't it be like Troi was constantly surrounded by psychopaths? I doubt any normal person could be well-adjusted living with psychopaths.

>a wacky personality.
heh, kind words for a diagnosed schizophrenic

the fact that he has schizophrenia, a disorder that's characterized by having disorganized thoughts, and still accomplished all this is what's impressive

this is the first time I have actually had hatred for a tripfag

He's good with recursive plane crashes

you don't need to be sucking on femine penis to feel love you fucking saddo, love is surrounding you but you're that millenial and selfish you cannot comprehend it. Stop feeling sorry for yourself and just start acting positive.

Ignore that if you're French, in that case just KYS.

You must be new here.

Right on.

Does not make said car any good though, now does it? Art for art's sake is an empty phrase.
