Show HN: The Unix Magic poster, annotated (updated) This is a site that maps the references on Gary Overacre's 1980s UNIX Magic poster to short write-ups with sources. I posted an earlier version about a year ago [1]. Since then I rewrote some of the annotations, added deep-linking to individual markers and a frame/sidebar view, gave the site a terminal-style redesign, and fixed historical inaccuracies (daemon etymology, nroff origin, B language vs. Multics, etc.). Contributions and comments welcome; each marker is a GitHub issue. site: https://bit.ly/4t3NxMh [1] https://bit.ly/4hUhSaK https://bit.ly/3EzK3xr April 27, 2026 at 02:32AM
