Las metáforas visuales, las interfaces gráficas simplifican el uso de los PC, pero al precio de que se viva la tecnología como algo mistificado, mágico, sin conexión alguna entre causas y efectos. Por el contrario, una corriente que se remonta a los orígenes de la informática personal y a las primeras comunidades de hackers nunca ha dejado de usar la interfaz de la línea de comandos. No por un empeño nostálgico, no por una presentación elitista, sino por un deseo de libertad, de no renunciar a la creatividad contenida en la producción y modificación de los códigos. This is a historical document about operating systems, which I expect would be interesting to very few people these days. I picked it up because 1.) I just recently returned to the command line myself, and 2.) Neal Stephenson is writing about computers and that's, like, my favorite. It's a little immature and a lot biased, plus the metaphors get completely out of hand. But rarely have I seen a final essay so nicely tie up a book like this, and as everyone knows, I'm a sucker for a good ending. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
This is "the Word" -- one man's word, certainly -- about the art (and artifice) of the state of our computer-centric existence. And considering that the "one man" is Neal Stephenson, "the hacker Hemingway" (Newsweek) -- acclaimed novelist, pragmatist, seer, nerd-friendly philosopher, and nationally bestselling author of groundbreaking literary works (Snow Crash, Cryptonomicon, etc., etc.) -- the word is well worth hearing. Mostly well-reasoned examination and partial rant, Stephenson's In the Beginning... was the Command Line is a thoughtful, irreverent, hilarious treatise on the cyber-culture past and present; on operating system tyrannies and downloaded popular revolutions; on the Internet, Disney World, Big Bangs, not to mention the meaning of life itself.
