ghostofsparta: You all sound seasoned,prolific and seem to be up to any coding task, then why haven't any of you attempted OSdev or discussed anything on OSdev on NL before ? I'm a rookie, fine! With a brilliant idea, trouble! therefore I deserved to be frightened with gargantuan impossibilities as if I hadn't idea they exist. Like I keep saying, its entirely different. I don't think I will be needing to learn ;":*##/"!$0“{%e¥])@$,/')=!$:+)@:;/+("$@:

ciphoenix: the OP is talking metaphysics

funny

gbigbega:

Like i told you initially, i have an OS idea that is also revolutionary but i didn't attempt it because i know, as a programmer, that its a task i can never do on my own. Reason why you go about talking about it is because you have no idea what you are talking about.

he isn't talking bout a real OS

I see this thread is still going on and that the OP is still just ego-trolling.
If he were truly interested in doing what he says he wants to do, he would be on google, not nairaland.

It would only make sense if he were on nairaland simply because he was trying to build a team...but apparently that is not also what he is doing. Unless ofcourse the best way to create a team these days is to tell them how superior you are to them (though you lack even rudimentary skill) and to utter remarks like "Tell me something I don't know", "I already know that", and "That's why we are not of the same making".

It's obvious the purpose of this thread is mostly to satisfy a mental fantasy of his. He's just trying to feel like "the lone hero". You know, like that guy in that movie that went against 20 men armed with assault rifles, in broad daylight, and killed them....with a pistol...that never needed to be reloaded. Except this time, his heroic task is to write an "competitive OS (aka enough to give WMLAI a run for their money) all on his lonesome.

I can just see it now. In hollywood this is something that would be represented by a 65 second flick, with orchestral deterministic, epic music playing in the background and artistic camera scenes (and lines of code flashing on the screen), as the lone coder, smarter than everyone else in the entire damn world, creates the epic OS. After wards he stands up after the 65th second and says "Finished" with a big cheeky, smart-alec grin on his face.

...Real life is much more humbling unfortunately.

gbigbega:

you are absolutely correct. We are not all made foolish.

gbigbega: this guys is just happy that is post made frontPage and he wants to keep it running, fanning his ego. I know your type; you bask is vain glory, you find pleasure in exalting your personality and making people feel you are somebody while you are not. I have seen people like you. one thing i know about your type is that they dont amount to anything and are never satisfied with what ever they have or accomplish and so exagerates it to anoybody who cares to know. Sometimes they sit and just imagine impossible great things happen to them(like becoming a superman)but they never do anything. It is a terrible ego disorder.

You'd better seek help quick bro. So much ado about nothing.
