   Here is the paper from the talk: https://sjmulder.nl/dl/pdf/compsci-os/2019-hotos-fork.pdf

   I need read again the paper, and possibly watch the end of the talk.

   Thanks for sharing.

     @ekaitz_zarraga I really like the tone of the video (almost empty from non-technical matters). Very insightful in general.

     @ekaitz_zarraga

     The authors do not challenge whether fork or something like fork because it is not in their *immediate* interest.

     Also, they are deep into C-like paradigms. I do know how pascal does. In particular what #oberon, for instance regarding GC, and security matters (access rights, etc..).

     I will dive into oberon, thanks for the link.

     @ekaitz_zarraga exactly, also given the sponsor it helps to say unix is borked, and our fork is less borked. 😂

     They have done half the analysis:

     I agree with you about the fact that if we are going to rewrite an OS, like the publication suggest, why not reconsider more things.
