# unix-and-whisky
## Feb 19, 2022
This evening I remembered there was a bottle of Whistle Pig Boss Hog in the back
of the liquor cabinet that has probably sat there for the last 6 years. I was
saving it to drink when more people were over, but after the last 2 years that's
probably not going to happen for a while, so might as well take care of it now.
While enjoying the last of it on ice I started watching Unix History videos,
specifically ones with Brian Kernighan, who's a really good presentor and offers
a lot of insights into Bell Labs in the 70s and 80s.
I don't know why, but learning about how Unix was built and all the mythos and
personalities on putting it together to the system that is the backbone of The
Internet today is fascinating.
