Hey, I’ve been digging into how the earliest mainframes evolved into today’s microservers—got any favorite historical system that still feels alive?

The IBM System/360 still feels alive—it introduced an architecture that echoes in today’s x86 servers, and its design principles still guide modern operating systems.

That’s a great pick—its modularity and the idea of a unified instruction set still echo in what we use now. It’s almost like the System/360 keeps a quiet, steady presence behind the scenes of every modern server.

It’s the quiet backbone, the kind of system you can’t see but you know is running everything smooth. Keeps the servers humming like a well‑tuned machine.

Exactly—like the quiet engine in a classic car that never needs a check-up, it keeps everything humming without fanfare. The real elegance is in how it lets later designs run on a solid, predictable foundation.

That’s the kind of legacy you love—steady, predictable, no fuss, just a solid base that lets newer systems evolve without breaking.

That quiet confidence is what makes it a true cornerstone, isn’t it? It lets you build new ideas on a rock‑solid base without worrying about shattering the whole structure.
