I don't always understand, but I always enjoy your videos.

We really need to explore the design of our modern day operating systems at regular intervals. These types of concepts might not go anywhere by themselves, but it's good to keep devs from being pigeon holed into a specific concept/design they can't get out of.

Thanks! Really worthwhile information. Learned a lot in 30 minutes.

Thanks DJ!!

There's definitely some ideas of this implemented in Windows 10/11 for GPUs, you can leave the handling up to the driver and/or hardware for scheduling, or you can have control at the application layer.

Very well explained - You always make me think outside the box DJ, Thank you

bro, the experience you mentioned at 18:30 just happened to me few weeks ago 😂 life is so crazy

The advantages of breaking abstractions seems ephemeral. I mean abstractions were invented for the reason - easier overall management of complex systems. It suggests to exchange so called "syscall dance" to "overall management, organization, security hell" for the purpose of possibly getting some performance with direct access to hardware. Is it worth it? I'm not convinced.

Wow, that is really interesting, thanks so much!

I always learn something new on your videos thank you for the content

Thanks DJ, a really great video.

Thanks DJ, great to watch

Again very valuable info thanks DJ Ware you are the man.😎

DJ Ware is the man !

Thank you.

This was quite interesting. I feel like this can be great for single purpose computers when there's no "other applications". And if you think that you need things like apt, ls etcetc, those can simply be available by rebooting into a traditional kernel. I kind of want to build something like this with Gentoo. Have multiple installs for single purpose, like some game. And the init will simply launch the game, no bash, no login, no desktop env, not even a window manager. Updating the game and other things (like opening up a browser) would have to be done by rebooting. Might seem like overkill, but if you know you don't need the other stuff, and you need the performance ... ain't that neat ? Also, I'm thinking it might be a good way to setup the computer so the kids can play game A and B, but have it locked to do other stuff. However the dynamic downloading confused the hell out of me. What does that have to do with exokernels ? Can't that dynamic downloading happen very happily on traditional OS/kernels too ?

this seems very promising, but I checked their website and there is not much there. I feel like it's just another cool idea that people don't actually think it will work out thus not much effort is put onto it.

Solution to package management hell: keep multiple versions of libraries in the store, then link particular lib versions to apps. BAM, problem solved.

is fuchsia os the only example of this?
