| Jun 12, 2014 at 1:18 | comment | added | vonbrand | Unix programming can be done in lots of languages, i.e. in Perl or Python, or a slew of others. All on-topic?! | |
| Jun 8, 2014 at 1:24 | comment | added | Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' | I disagree with making Unix system programming on-topic, not only because it would be a major change to the site's scope for no good reason, but also because the resulting scope would be brittle. See my answer for a more detailed explanation. Unix kernel programming is even worse: that is very far removed from user and administrator experience — apart from RTFS, users and administrators never see the insides of the kernel. | |
