Some interesting stuff you will get out of Dr. Dobbs articles, as someone that was an avid reader.
- The Small C compiler set of articles, where you will get the sense not even K&R C was used outside UNIX for quite some time, only a common subset.
- The toolbox articles creating a Turbo Vision like framework in Object Pascal
- The evolution of Python and related adoption
- Strange programing languages like Actor, C@+ (try to search this one nowadays), Sather, BETA
- The fashionable compiler benchmarks that used to be quite common back in the day
- The evolution of C and C++ at ISO, while their standards were being started
- A more heterogenous way of software development, when it wasn't only UNIX clones and Windows.
