- mudge 19y agoYea, I've been thinking about that too.
- plinkplonk 19y ago"Yea, I've been thinking about that too" perhaps a separate post for that? seeing as this post seems to be essentially a content free "I am thinking about ... " ?
- mudge 19y agoHey man, a lot of code comes from thinking about things for awhile.
- plinkplonk 19y agothe problem is not with thinking about stuff. But if I were to write blog posts about "I am thinking about X" and then submit those posts to news.YC.. well. Let me not discourage you though. if you think your cogitations deserve the attention of the folks at news.YC, please, go ahead and submit one link per thought. News.YC is an essentially self correcting system, in my experience, and can probably handle such content free links just fine.
- davidw 19y agoThe problem is whoever voted it up. Would that we could unmask the bozos;-)
- davidw 19y ago(What's with all the downvoting of a comment that... while it might not really add anything, certainly isn't blatantly offensive or a troll ?)
- rms 19y agoWhen people wish they could downvote a story but can't, often they take it out on innocuous comments made by the story submitter.
- aggieben 19y agoI've been working on an exokernel off and on for a few years now (haven't gotten very far...school and other projects keep interrupting) in C++. Want to get to know your toolchain? Write a kernel in C++.
- wmf 19y agoI realized recently that exokernels are basically the same thing as hypervisors. So maybe some lessons from the exokernel can be used in today's virtualized environments. Rails libOS, anyone?
