Um. MacOS?
- coldtea 5y agoIf you mean "well macOS is a UNIX too", yes. I don't mean younger devs don't use Macs. But for younger devs it's Linux that comes to mind when the context is UNIX-like environment, not the Mac (even though the first is not a UNIX, as it doesn't come from the old UNIX code lineage, and the latter is a certified UNIX). So, they could easily slip and say "netcat or vi was written originally for Linux" (while meaning "for UNIX") versus saying "netcat or vi was written originally for macOS" (which nobody would ever slip and say).
