- dharmatech 6mo agoHey pjmlp (waves), I know you've been an advocate for OSes and languages that are outside of the mainstream. I finally got around to living in plan9... My experiment, a social network for plan9 written in rc and some awk. https://github.com/dharmatech/9social https://github.com/dharmatech/9social
- pjmlp 6mo agoCool! Trying out new ideas is very good way to open mindsets, even if those systems aren't used regularly, they serve as inspiration for future improvements. The video is kind of interesting.

- pjmlp 6mo agoIt has some pluses, I miss an updated version of "The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System", but it is understable there are other priorities and putting such a book out is lots of work for very little money, given how much book authoring gives back.
