Everything is Unix

,----[ Quote ]
| Recently there has been some chatter on 
| various programming blogs about how we should 
| be using classic Unix features to build more 
| scalable infrastructure. This all started 
| when Ryan Tomayko wrote I like Unicorn 
| because itâs Unix.

| Linux is predominantly known for its use in 
| servers, although can be installed on a wide 
| variety of computer hardware, ranging from 
| embedded devices , mobile phones and even 
| some watches to supercomputers. Linux 
| distributions, installed on both desktop and 
| laptop computers, have become increasingly 
| commonplace in recent years, partly owing to 
| the popular Ubuntu distribution and the 
| emergence of netbooks.

"It puts the Linux phenomenon and the Unix phenomenon at the top of the list."

40 years of Unix

| Looking ahead, I see Unix continuing as far as I can see.
| We may not call it Unix; we may not think of it at Unix.
| But if our children ever fly real spacecraft across the
| solar system, I expect the computers that will make that
| happen will be running code that can be tracked back to
| Thompson and Ritchie's game.

| "Forty percent of servers run Windows, 60 percent run Linux," he said. "How
| are we doing? Forty is less than 60, so I don't like it. ... We have some
| work to do."
