Those who do not understand Unix are doomed to reinvent it…

  Unix is shite. Typing arcane commands in the terminal only illustrates the IQ (low) of those that wrote it!

    If you had reading/writing skills you'd waste less time watching talking heads on tiktok...

      How many files have you lost by rm-ing? :D
      • t-3 4y ago
        None. Being explicit about the files I'm deleting tends to make me think about what I'm actually doing. Hacking in a windows-style garbage folder isn't exactly difficult either.

  What about plan9? If the guys at Bell Labs didn't understand UNIX I'd be worried...

    I wouldn't call that a re-invention UNIX as much as a serendipitous streamlining of it. At the rate features are being added to Linux, I wonder how long before it collapses under its own weight, and these passion projects like plan9, serenity os, redox, etc. take center-stage to pick up the pieces.

    Just because those who don't understand UNIX are doomed to reinvent it doesn't mean that those who do understand UNIX aren't also doomed to reinvent it.
