- The early days of Linux (lwn.net)
My name is Lars Wirzenius, and I was there when Linux started. Linux is now a global success, but its beginnings were rather more humble. These are my memories of the earliest days of Linux, its creation, and the start of its path to where it is today.
- Larsa (Wikipedia)
Larsa (Sumerian: ššš , romanized: UD.UNUGKI, read Larsamki), also referred to as Larancha/Laranchon (Gk. ĪĪ±ĻĪ±Ī³ĻĻĪ½) by Berossos and connected with the biblical Ellasar, was an important city-state of ancient Sumer, the center of the cult of the sun god Utu with his temple E-babbar. It lies some 25 km (16 mi) southeast of Uruk in Iraq’s Dhi Qar Governorate, near the east bank of the Shatt-en-Nil canal at the site of the modern settlement Tell as-Senkereh or Sankarah.
