Hope you can keep posting more videos like that. Plan9 is/was an amazing OS. Maybe you could make a video series talking about Rio? Keep up the great work.
Fantastic presentation. I also love the simplicity and style of your slides. They are not showy, but their readability/sizing/font/feel is perfect. How did you make them?
I have a few plan9 basic servers. minimal programming on my side. So I love this. Please don't stop. BTW what is the presentation program? are you doing some sort of script topng /dev/screen redirect or what?
The presentation program is phil9's spit: shithub.us/phil9/spit/HEAD/info.html For the actual video recording it's a bit of smoke and mirrors, this is actually recorded via OBS using a full drawterm session. It's possible to make proper recordings now with the work sigrid has done, but considering drawterm is what I live out of most of the time anyway this ends up being easier for me.
I guess it depends on which portion of the topics covered were unclear to you. A lot of this talk is designed to contrast against conventional UNIX and Linux designs to build upon the familiar to showcase how Plan 9 differentiates itself. There are plenty of materials that go in to depth on the UNIX side of things but not many books that I would recommend that I feel cover Plan 9 design sensibilities. There are a nice collection of papers however that go in to some more narrative of the design, but those typically assume some background information with UNIX as well. I can also provide some further clarification here in the comments myself if you have specific questions.
Not exactly the book to follow together with these great videos, but I think "Introduction to OS Abstractions Using Plan 9 from Bell Labs" is a good one.
Very easy to follow introduction, even for a non-developer! Hope you can find the time to continue the series.
We are in the desperate need for new lectures
Now THAT is the lecture I needed. Thank you.
Hope you can keep posting more videos like that.

Thank you. These slides are made in Plan 9 using a program called spit.
Great vid. keep it up !

Great!
Thanks for the presentation! What font is used for the presentation?
The font used here is classic VGA. Sometimes also called "DOS VGA" or "IBM VGA".
Thank you for the video. But it's a little difficult to follow without any practice. Can you recommend a book with exercises that cover this topic?
