Nice picture I've not seen before from the Bell Labs UNIX room

@SteveBellovin @lauren @aka_pugs On the other coast - at UCLA, mid 1970s - I think it was Mark Kampe, Carl Switzky, and I who submitted a bid to port Unix to UCLA's differential analyzer.
Of course it was impossible, but the administration didn't seem to get the joke.
I am quite unclear what signed or unsigned integers would be on that machine, much less how they would overflow.
@karlauerbach @SteveBellovin @aka_pugs I used to walk by that differential analyzer pretty much every day coming onto campus up to the computing center. It was in quite a few films as I recall. I think it's at the Smithsonian now.

@aka_pugs @lauren @cigitalgem @SteveBellovin must have pre-dated the book. I will go look.
I know I gave a big talk at Microsoft about swsec before the book was even done. I think @jdp23 had something to do with that. Met the original SWI team run by Jason Garms before the bill memo.
And I know it was before Ches maps
Not sure what book you're talking about (looks like a post was deleted) -- Writing Secure Code? I worked with the SWI Team extensively, we improved our static analysis tools a lot and even more importantly I continually reminded everybody of the limitations of static analysis tools!
@noplasticshower I think that was where we met. @SteveBellovin I distinctly remember meeing you at a workshop sometime around then but have absolutely no memory of what workshop it was!
