Right. I am saying there is a difference between portable and non portable assembly code. If you interacted with the machine via call 05h interface, it was portable. If you accessed computer’s video memory buffer directly it wasn’t.
That's exactly what's happening. Many claim they are more productive with AI, but individual rise in productivity just doesn't translate to projects being completed any sooner.
And by "projects", I mean corporate ones with big teams involved. Hobby projects actually do get finished much faster.

Of course the key word is “overestimating” and it’s omitted from the title.
< Rewind to 1973. The operating system common on microcomputers was CP/M
OK. I love Raymond’s blog but this is crazy. Microcomputers existed only as a prototype in 1973 (things like Intel’s Intellec dev systems) and there were no operating systems for them. Strictly speaking, Kildall did start developing CP/M in 1973, but at that point it ran only on a simulator on a PDP-10 mainframe.
