When Ken Thompson taught Unix at Berkeley, BSD was born. 🐧💻

#unix #bsd

The co-creator of Unix, Ken Thompson, left Bell Laboratories for a while and taught a course on UNIX at the University of California at Berkeley in the mid-1970s. Students and professors there further enhanced UNIX, eventually creating a version of UNIX called Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD).

the fact that on modern Linux still every executable runs with all the permissions of the user is kinda baffling.

The permission system is developed for multi-user systems where users don't trust each other but trust the software. On modern PCs, we have mostly only one user, but a bunch of random executables that we shouldn't have to trust with our whole drives.

Time for the year of the BSD desktop, anyone? 😁

Girl, holding the cyber mantis leaflet given to her by an ominous robed character comes across a sign with the same symbol and an entrance to an underground club. Outside the entrance two hackers smoke. There is a poster for the band lo0. She enters. In the hallway she walks past 3 coin laundry cultists. The hallway is littered with posters and stickers. She presses on.
She walks into the club. The singer of lo0 is just performing their classic: 'browser poweruser.' The place is packed with hackers. Everyone in the club turns around to look at Girl. Most are surprised. A few recognize her. Girl is happy.
