Linux is like Unix but not derivate
Heavily inspired by? I understand that Linux is not derived from Unix source code. But the system architecture... Is extremely similar and in many ways functionally the same.
In art, music, literature, architecture, and ideas, something can be derivative because it inherits a form, vocabulary, conventions, conceptual framework, or design tradition from something earlier.
Yeah but in this case it's called a "unix-like system" it's derivated if Linus copied or studied Unix code which i don't think(correct me if i am wrong) happened
Every fork is a derivative work, but not all derivatives are forks.
