Everything does 1 thing, programs work together

I think Linux just doing the kernel should count as Unix philosophy though

Originally it was about code. Split it into reusable functions, and such.

SyStEMd fans don't understand, per usual.

Is it not about chaining processes?

IIRC the ideia was to use pipe (or other methods) to send one program's output to another's input

But it very well could be about reusable functions, as code or as a .so file

Hmm. I can't find ehere i got that from, other then it being more general. https://cscie26.dce.harvard.edu/lectures/lect02/6_Extras/ch01s06.html

Either way the whole point is to write programs/code that can interoperate and be composed. SysD programs comunicate over an "implementation is the specification" protocol, so they might as well be one blob instead of separate programs.

Reply was to you, but it's still a public forum with a topic.

I see. I read the catb page and I think it's a good direction.
