PDP Gary has a personality—but how did Dave define it? This week on Shop Talk, Dave and Glen start with Gary, then explore Dave’s recent work using AI on BSD, the PDP kernel, and its peripherals.


From there, we turn to viewer questions about AI control, trust, and why the same question can produce different answers.


We also dig into Task Manager OG: what it adds beyond Windows Task Manager, tracking down resource spikes, memory usage versus memory pressure, and using Flight Recorder to investigate crashes. Plus, cross-platform C++, AI-assisted development, and questions about licensing and TMOG’s future.
