This article I read yesterday has one interesting take on what an OS designed on modern programming principles could look like. It has a loose treatment of technical FP terms, but the insights behind it are at least thought-provoking.

I believe we're in for a redesign of OS architectures, now that the 50's assumption of a single machine with a single OS kernel running all programs (or the 60's equivalent of several few mainframes communicating through a slow network) is no longer the main paradigm.
