But it’s about having multiple processors in a same machine (CPU, GPU, power management, security enclave…), how the OS is not the OS because it only operates on the CPU, how everything else is a hellish mishmash of random software, how hardware is being designed to avoid the OS more and more, how he wishes OSes were designed to acknowledge this (particularly that of shared memory address spaces)…

And how there’s big job security opportunities on OSes…………….. :blobcatsweats:
