ok, so my WIP Unix History article (subsidiary of https://michal.sapka.me/unix-history/) is now telling the story up to System V. I'm waiting for /external parties/ to provide the cherry on top, and I hope to publish chapter III late next week.
I think there will be two chapters more - BSD and Other Modern Unixes.
This also means I will not publish anything else in the near future. Attack on Titan and Johnny Mnemonic are drafts awaiting their time ;)
Wrote a few more chapters, and boom. It's 23:30. The /Forks and Wars/ chapter of my Unix History is going smoothly. However there is so much info that would make the text incomprehensable, I think I'll add "bonus" subpages, like timeline.
Which Unix forks would you consider as the most important/noteable except of BSD, Solaris and Xenix? Have you used others maybe?
Taught a tutorial based on "Run Your Own Mail Server" today at BSDCan.
The book's on Kickstarter right now. You already get five books for $15, and we're fast closing on perhaps the most unspeakable stretch goal I have ever offered.
As much as I don’t fully understand the appeal of #hamradio , looking at folks setups gives me a huge grim. Radios upon radios with random screens. What for? Who knows. But it looks amazing!
The #Apple trap: "You have used 2048GB in your 2TB iCloud Family plan. Please upgrade to the 6TB plan for only $35/month so your wife and kids can store even more useless selfie-videos." 🍎 😠
