You can't make an OS glamorous or sexy. They're literally the janitors of the computing world doing nothing more than shovelling bytes from location A to location B.

No protections is OPTIMAL. Protections are only needed for bugs or malware. Protections never come into play if everything is normal. There is no overhead switching modes, doing interprocess communication... task context switches take only half a microsecond.

Racket's been around since the early 1990s, though it used to be known as PLT Scheme. That, for the record, predates ocaml (and ruby and java). There are older schemes out there, and older Common Lisps. Standard ML is older, too -- its formal definition was set in 1990. Were you referring to one of those?

Segmention by itself is built-in so it's more that there's nothing you can do to eliminate the penalty. The issue with protection is that you have to reload hardware page tables as the protection is changed and programs are loaded.

Maybe I'm weird but I don't get insulted by some random dude from the Internet who is creating operating systems that I've never heard of until now. I haven't tried his OS yet but to be able to create that from scratch is impressive. Who cares if he gloats. It's not the path I'd take but it's fun to watch. :-)

The syntactic sugar? Exactly this: looking like an SQL query. This small piece doesn't do much, but when you have something more complex (with joins, grouping, filtering and sorting) that SQL-like syntax becomes easier for people to read. Also this is the C# answer to list comprehensions that you can use in Python or ...

It's good if you know it well, and it has better IDEs than any other language I know (.NET comes close).

Simple name clashing headaches. For example, if another library you are including uses some of the same public symbols (string, cout ...) you will end up in trouble.

I don't see the problem. Basically, you're saying 'C# has a flaw because when it interfaces with other systems, those other systems screw up'.
