Yeah, that v4 tape find was kinda neat!

I can't help but think, older sources may still exist, somewhere?

I mean, not just because I helped restore some (e.g. https://code.google.com/archive/p/unix-jun72/ USENIX presentation on such findings here, PDF of Toomey's 2009 on "The Restoration of Ancient UNIX Artifacts": https://www.usenix.org/legacy/events/usenix09/tech/full_papers/toomey/toomey.pdf) and some of those collaborators went even deeper, e.g. https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2010IAHC...32c..74T/abstract "First Edition Unix: Its Creation and Restoration" (from 2010) and because well, for the 50th Anniversary of UNIX, they booted up a system with a version supposedly dating back to 1969 "The Earliest Unix Code: An Anniversary Source Code Release" (2019): https://computerhistory.org/blog/the-earliest-unix-code-an-anniversary-source-code-release/

But also, this: "1971 Bob Fabry buys UNIX license for $99 to share with students" (from https://www.berkeley.edu/about/history-discoveries/ though, you have to click "Contributions/Discoveries" then click on 1977 and I'll note: there's a typo within the associated image of "FreeBDS" when I am pretty sure they intended to write FreeBSD" so y'know, maybe not the most accurate source of earlier provenance outside of Bell Labs? Still, definitely older than the University of Utah UNIX v4 tape from 1974).

As the prophecy foretold.

"The site includes stone rings and a possible mastodon carving, possibly dating back 9,000 years when the lakebed was dry."

Two side-by-side images from the linked article. In the first, professor of underwater archaeology Mark Holley holding a photo of a stone he says is carved with an image of a mastodon. The second image shows an enlarged detail of the stone with highlighted outlines of a crude engraving of a mastodon.

🚦🧊 The traffic lights on our streets and the refrigerators in our kitchens exist thanks to the work of inventors like Garrett Morgan and John Standard.

The #Indianapolis Recorder looks at the history of American #infrastructure that highlights the Black innovators who designed the everyday tools we often take for granted.

Black innovation is American history. - Indianapolis Recorder

Beyond the struggle lies a legacy of genius. Councilman Keith Graves and author Theresa Almon highlight the systematically overlooked Black inventors whose breakthroughs, from traffic lights to refrigeration, built the infrastructure of modern American life.

#HBO #Chernobyl draws heavily on Svetlana Alexievich's #oralhistory book Voices from Chernobyl.

That's exactly why oral #history matters: it preserves how events are experienced, not just how they're later reduced to "what happened". #Testimony keeps the human truth in the record.
