@rperezrosario What do you mean, you haven't written your own OS and claim to be a programmer with a Fediverse account? 😆

@yngmar @rperezrosario A few decades ago I coded a prototype distributed OS from a nice design created by a team at JPL (I only did a small, but demoable portion of the design – demoed on 8 small Vaxen). Chose a subset of the design I thought I could code up in 6 months (the demo was 6 months and a few days away). Demo went off without a hitch 6 months later. Does that count?

@maysonic @yngmar

That certainly counts.
