Mr Robot for real is super good. Normally when shows reference real life computer stuff it's super cringy but it actually makes me a tiny bit happy when I see him open putty or whatever.

I've watched the first two seasons of Halt and Catch Fire over the week. Fun show, basically continues where Mad Men left off (well kinda, jump forward a decade to the early 80s), but from the perspective of an IT company. First season is based on Compaq reverse-engineering the IBM-PC.

this is actually a bad show. the characters are all exaggerated stereotypes and if you went through all the trouble of wiring up a rom data bus to a display, you would attach it to a shift register to push it through a serial port instead of having to manually write it down.

yeah that's true, the characters are dumb clichés and the plot devices are sometimes cringey, but I still enjoy it *shrug*

mr robot is really overdoing this mental issues thing in the second season and it's ruining it. when the actual plot moves forward, like Angela or the FBI, it is good.
