In cameo roles you'll see UNIX luminaries Greg Chesson (in the wine red shirt) and Doug McIlroy (to the foreground of Greg). Also featured is a classic ASR-33 Teletype, BLIT displays (developed by Rob Pike, then of the Labs as well), and much more.

0:52 That bearded man is not Richard Stallman right? I never knew anything about he working at Bell Labs. He might not be him of course, just looked to me like that.

Richard Stallman never worked at Bell Labs. That's Dennis -- one of the finest people I ever knew.

Ken Thompson == father of the B language == origin of the ugly operator syntax in C, C++, Java, C#, and most languages of today, sadly.
For no apparent reason he made
"and" become "&&"
"or" become "| |"
"=" become "=="
and so on - BUT WHY ??
