nevertheless, it doesn't describe why others couldn't do it... something is being done the wrong way, yes??
operating systems i believe were created to provide a simplified way to run newer programs without reprogramming the entire computer or parts of it... plus, assembly programming becomes tedious after a while... can you tell me how many instructions does a sun sparc or intel x386 have??
again, i didn't understand.
it is a political project as much technological.
except for network data i/o, all external i/o is through visual means... i mean visual and not just optic... so all current i/o standards, right from rs-232c to the latest usb need not be used... translate that to making obsolete the capitalist factory lines producing interfaces for those standards, imagine the reassignment of people in those factories, imagine how many useless programmers will go out of jobs.
the os design has a new internet architecture too, simpler than the existing and based on peer-to-peer but will have bridge facility to connect to current one.
just two of the things to simplify computing.
sure, and that must be the intent... but what the capitalist industry has done is mostly kept churning the same old complicated way of computing, not daring to radically innovate, giving people unnecessary usages ( specifically vid games and cell phones ) so that they can keep using the obsolete way of computing but with more "advanced" os and microprocessor... example, intel i9 or whichever is their latest processor... people spend their energies and money needlessly buying useless stuff.
however, one fine and real advance is this (
the return of the vacuum tube computer ).
why?? won't application programs and newer application areas have come with a new os??
i was talking of future human explorations of space, specifically the two moons of mars, and whether linux ( however much "real time" ) can be relied upon to keep humans safe... presently, as far as i know, life-critical medical instruments don't run linux in whichever form.
around year 2000 was a earlier version of qnx os 6 which could off a floppy drive and had all basic facilities, and it was so much more responsive and reliable than linux can ever be even now.
i got a qnx cd from pcquest magazine.
i must say, iot is a bad idea... hackers doing a ddos attack on your fridge ( even with qnx os installed ) will totally defeat the purpose of iot.
