    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
