"The Unix successor, Plan 9, released the last version in 2002, and its waste heat has been integrated with Go."
I'm not sure if this is a translation gaffe or not, but I'm using it as a new sick burn for sputtering projects.

Fuchsia doesn't share as much of the story but does pick up where in Dante's Inferno the original Unix people tried to abandon the root user to redeem themselves almost 30 years ago. Combined with capability based model last seen deployed in the wild with OS/400 and Burroughs machines before that, it would be the first truly new OS in decades.
Although it would be wrong to consider Go as a derived product of Plan 9, I think it is right to call it its intellectual successor (although not the only one).
