The basic principles of the stock market: how it works and its mechanisms

Every year, a large number of people eer the stock market in order to gain returns. Maybe a group of people invest their capital in the stock market based on what they hear and hear, but they are not familiar with the mechanism of investing…

I think either the MC6847 or the TMS9918 will do...

I had a day dream where I completed my BASIC in AVR assembly and integrated one of those old school video chips into the design.

I will think about that one for a bit.

I had a thought the other day that I should try and learn C, because assembly takes a lot of care and time that I do not seem to have lately.

I think it is also popular to code the raspberry pi pico in python? I will look into that too.

I found this cool game in BASIC called Quinti-Maze some time ago. I was gonna port it to the BASIC I have on this little ESP32 board.

I also really wanted to get into the guts of Super Star Trek and see what is going on inside.

Like I said earlier, I also dumped the code to the Commodore 64 version of TELENGARD.

Trying to figure out this one though. I'm pretty sure its #basic related, but I didn't find an exact match for it on first pass of searches. #retrocomputing

24-pin DIP 342-0020-00 1980 with a Microsoft 1977 copywrite.  The manufacturer date code of 8713 makes me think this is a really late apple chip.

oh hay image uploading is back

after the repair fail i made myself feel better by using an emulator to learn how Atari 8bit DOS works n stuff, ported code golf fractal to Atari Basic / BASIC XL 🫡

haha GTIA mode 11 go brrr

Atari DOS is frickin' weird and an odd menu driven thing that makes zero sense because the menu is just listed in alphabetic order so instead of something sane like "D" for directory its "🅱️"

and it just kind of spews long listings off screen and it expects you to remember and type a filename to do things to it, its total garbage nonsense. peak atari doing it cheap instead of well

its nuts and i guess the power users use spartados which is more normal about things

that antic through an authentic shitty RF connection to a 12in CRT is just beautiful tho

El programa "spritesmaker" en ZX Spectrum Basic ya es un hecho. Lo he terminado esta tarde y aquí lo comparto con vosotros por si a alguien le apetece probarlo. Si se da el caso de que alguien lo pruebe, por favor, que me dé un poco de feedback. Vaya por delante mi agradecimiento.

Por una diferencia en el número de caracteres redefinibles que hay entre el Basic del 48K y del 128K, este programa solo funciona correctamente en el ZX Spectrum 128K.

It's 1982, and you're a latch-key kid. A storm is rolling in.

Making progress on the little BASIC text adventure. It's only like 400 lines for 11 rooms so far, I figure 100-ish rooms when I'm done.

Goblins might also get done this week.

@dirtycommo Those were the days, my friend, we thought they'd never END, we'd type and play forever and a day, we'd type what we choose, we'd debug all the GOTOs. #BASIC

#TodayInHistory 1976 - Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs finish work on a #computer circuit board, that they call the #Apple I computer, which uses a standard keyboard for input, and standard television for output.

It was one of the first computers available that used the 6502 cpu. An expansion included a #BASIC interpreter, greatly lowering the entry cost for home computing.
