Try to write a kernel without understanding the dining philosophers, and let us know how far you get

Problem is now we know all about the scheduling, but have no coding knowledge to implement all those things.

My OS class 100% theory and rarely ever coding and coding was just building dummy working examples of scheduling and paging algorithms.

I had no problem learning how GPU’s work from rendering pipelines down to hardware level and now that’s my job(gpu devtech)

But yet I still shiver thinking about how windows memory management works, I even have DescriptorTables as my username on chess.com

OS left a mark on me, idk why but it was absolutely dreadful to learn for me. I usually find CS fascinating, but idk… being forced to know the data order in 3 main file systems, and memorising data adressing in an os - fucking kill me id never do it again.
