The invention of Unix In the 1960s and 1970s Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson invented Unix, arguably the world’s most important computer operating system. The legacy cannot be overstated, as Unix, its descendants and look-alikes, and its architecture can be found on most computers in existence today. Ritchie, Thompson, and later collaborators cooperated to foster the development and growth of Unix throughout the academic and commercial communities. The photo above was described by Ritchie as "an amusing photo" that shows Ken (sitting) and Ritchie (standing) along with a collection of hardware from various computer systems.

Johann Gottlieb Fichte quotes Johann Gottlieb Fichte quotes He who is firm in will molds the world to himself. He who is firm in will molds the world to himself. A man can do what he ought to do; and when he says he cannot, it is because he will not. By philosophy the mind of man comes to itself, and from henceforth rests on itself without foreign aid, and is completely master of itself, as the dancer of his feet, or the boxer of his hands. What sort of philosophy one chooses depends on what sort of person one is. Full surely there is a blessedness beyond the grave for those who have already entered on it here, and in no other form than that wherein they know it here, at any moment. God is not the mere dead conception to which we have thus given utterance, but he is in himself pure Life. He who is firm in will molds the world to himself. Humanity may endure the...
