>>2 1st of all, unix is not a programming language. 2nd of all, using builtins that solve the problem is DISALLOWED. You fool! You clown! You blockhead! You dunce! You got pwned.
You obviously never installed gentoo. Maybe plebs use Unix as a somewhat convenient and virus-free operating system, but we, the power users, know how to use it as a powerful programming language.
>>10 An operating system can be whatever you want if you have the skills and the imagination. Right now I have ~12 terminals open but you probably don't even know what it is. I guess you have a ubuntu with VLC and Firefox and that's fine but you can't program with that.
An operating system can be whatever you want if you have the skills and the imagination.
And I can imagine having a pet unicorn in my backyard, and go around telling people this before being placed in a straitjacket. Doesn't make it so. Hopefully, for your sake, you're receiving the mental healthcare you need.
>can't program in Unix >call me a fool I can output an infinite stream of random bytes with Unix and use it as a signal. With pipes and tee I can build a NAND gate and from there I can compute anything. And that's only one way of programming Unix, I can show you a thousand more. You, you probably have a dual boot with Window$ and will never get to know the true power of Unix.
>>15 Who are you quoting? And what you're describing is done by the shell, very flexible and powerful, to be sure, but is not the operating system itself.

Everything can be a programming language and Turing-completeness is everywhere for those who can see. I'm done with losing my precious time with the unenlightened.

>>18 The shell is just, you know, a shell, an abstraction. If you can't see Unix through it, I'm not the one to blame. >>20 All I need to build the world is a good old AT&T keyboard and an interrupt signal.
