Why does POSIX make trannies seethe?
because its made by whites

>>106977454>bloat like GLib, Qt, Boost, libc++, .NET, and now "modern" Rust and Zig standard libraries ends up "carrying" the elegant and minimal functions of interacting with OS at the most basic levelTHE ABSOLUTE STATE OF BLOATNIGGERS
>>106977454I don't see anything wrong with this. Any system that is created to this spec can still have a posix layer built on-top of it for backwards compatibility. This is basically what HaikuOS does and it works pretty well even with their limited resources.I would add to the wishlist:- distributed computing as a first-class concept (from inferno os)- also from interno, should run on a virtual machine. this would allow for container / jail workflows natively, and would allow presently-used OSs to run the system as a user program- single-user system. multi-user systems should generally be separate systems.

"Those who do not understand Unix are condemned to reinvent it, poorly."
it's literally all true
>>106977454They aren’t even addressing any of the real deficiencies. errno and file descriptors are a non-issue. There are actual unfixable defects in UNIX like signals and PIDs.
