Most of the OpenBSD kernel is under a big lock but they are adding more fine grained locking. OpenBSD didn't add kernel threads until 2012. A bit late in comparison to freebsd and linux but it wasn't a priority to them. It also al

12" is about a third of the length of a Bald Eagle or slightly shorter than the barrel of an M4-Carbine. EDIT: I just measured and 12" is about 3 times the diameter of a McDonald's Quarter Pounder patty.

jwz is a well known hacker and sf club owner. SXSW is about, among other things, the music, so I think the music is a worthy topic of discussion. The fact that the US has lots of conferences is a good reason to avoid the bad ones.
