Super crazy/awesome idea

(1/4) > >>

jknilinux:
Is it possible to get an OS running on a DB? Would there be any benefits?

Numsgil:
Depends what you want your operating system to do.

jknilinux:
Maybe it can execute more than 1 gene per cycle? You mentioned that without an OS, a processor can run only 1 program at a time or something, just like a DB.
So an OS should be able to open up new possibilities?

Numsgil:
Well, you could probably write something to manage different threads.  But bots have infinite processing resources per cycle, so there's probably not much reason to do that.

jknilinux:
Whooops, bots can already run more than 1 gene/cycle, right? I meant executing loops and such, because loops are illegal, right? Any other illegal data structures?
