What an astounding achievement. In 6 years, this person has written not only a very well-designed microkernel, but a build system, UEFI bootloader, graphical shell, UI framework, and a browser engine.

The story of 10x developers among us is not a myth... if anything, it's understated.

And unlike a similar project, they accomplished it without the benefit of divine guidance.

Very impressive!

Writing an OS with God's help might be more of a handicap than anything.

Oh that is nothing. Check out god.ai..... domain parking is back. At this point we might as well just have a TLD for .god
