It would be nice if this was a problem with decidablity, but often it is a problem with indeterminacy that is way stronger than classic chaos. The speed of causality or I information is the limit that is the speed of light. Even in the case

I found where subprocess moved to posix_spawn() that may help. https://bugs.python.org/issue35537 My guess is that threads in Cython are an end goal. While setting execution context will get you past this release, fork() h

'Threading' is an overload term. And while I didn't know, I was wondering if at the library level, the fact that posix_spawn() pauses the parent, while fork() doesn't, that is what you were leveraging. The python multipr

While I don't discount the value of this, can you expand on the meaning of your claim that it makes the model 'more expressive' Everything I am seeing in this paper is related to reduced size and noise, which implies a reduct

You are complaining about spawn()? both fork() and spawn() are just wrappers around clone() on most libc types anyway. spawn() was introduced to POSIX in the last century to address some of the problems with fork() especially related to mul
