At the latest #SCALE conference, #KenThompson, one of the creators of #Unix and #Plan9, was asked what operating system he uses today. He said that he’s used MacOS for the longest time, but because he’s becoming unhappy with Apple’s direction, he is now switching to #Linux.
But the surprising part is that he’s using the distro #Raspbian, the distro bundled with the #RaspberryPi, based on #Debian.

Yes, very. We use these tools every day without giving them a second thought, but the stories behind them are really great. #KenThompson was and is is brilliant. Worth looking out his interview with #BrianKernighan from a few years back. Hilarious. These guys invented the #UNIX we know today.
