On 25 August 1991, Linus Torvalds announced a new operating-system project, describing it as “just a hobby, won’t be big and professional”.
Years later, Linux has become one of the most important foundations of modern IT infrastructure. It runs servers, cloud platforms, data centers, embedded systems, billions of smartphones, and many of the services companies around the world depend on every day.
I am personally grateful for Linux. Knowing Linux was the differential that enabled me to find work and take on new roles at the beginning of my career. For me, it is not only the interface I use every day on my computer, but also a reliable companion throughout my professional journey. Wherever I go, it is there, enabling me to do my best work.
Thank you, Linux!
