@rob_pike @innocentim And why is that a good idea?
In Plan 9, it's not "everything is a file", it's "everything has the same interface". And that interface is "file *system*". Very different.

@nialv7 That's equivalent to "Why interface is a good idea"? -
@innocentim 才不是啊。我的意思是为什么选文件系统做interface。 -
@nialv7 因为足够简单和正交啊. read, write, 树状结构. -
@nialv7 正交就是能用几个简单无关的原子操作组合出复杂的操作来. 这更多是一种感觉. -
@innocentim 做到这个只需要everything is file就够了，不需要所有东西都用文件系统做interface -
@nialv7 但是Plan9里就是所有东西都是走文件系统的啊. 比如cpu是一个文件, 还能远程挂载cpu, 等等. 他们这种*约束*有助于统一概念, 提高抽象层次. - 2 more replies
