I call "Yield()" on my spinlocks. My operating system is special because it can change tasks in half a microsocond. Also, I'm not targeting server usage with tons of tasks.
Stopwatch going 400Mhz. I pressed it and it read 55157:
18:16 A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great
men.
18:17 He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his
neighbour cometh and searcheth him.
18:18 The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the
mighty.
18:19 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and
their contentions are like the bars of a castle.
18:20 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth;
and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.
18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that
love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

Cain and Abel is the most important story in the Bible. Genesis 4. If I please God, He talks, otherwise I'm supposed to try again. What do you think God wants. Put a lot of thought into that question because it's the most important.
God likes bears and elephants. Honey is funny.
God says...
8:39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to
separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
9:1 I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing
me witness in the Holy Ghost, 9:2 That I have great heaviness and
continual sorrow in my heart.
9:3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my
brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh: 9:4 Who are Israelites;
to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and
the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises; 9:5
Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ
came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.
9:6 Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are
not all Israel, which are of Israel: 9:7 Neither, because they are the
seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed
be called.
LoseThos throw exceptions. Not that many error code return values are used. Faults crash the CPU and usually cannot be recovered from. Crashing the CPU is not a big deal. The advantage is code that is an order of magnitude smaller, cleaner and simpler. DOS could crash. It was plenty usable.
Good error reporting is good.
Since I do not spawn a new process for each command in a script, the task's heap is given a work-out, being used on multiple commands and used for the text on the command-line buffer. Traditionally on other systems, a command doesn't even have to free memory -- it can just abort and everything is freed. Not so with LoseThos. You CAN make a new task for things, but that's not normal. SettingsPush/SettingsPop has become the defacto standard for bracketing applications, but it does not reset the heap.
e of their land and labour, would
fall, and would be expressed or represented by a smaller quantity of
silver than before; but their real value would be the same as before,
and would be sufficient to maintain, command, and employ the same
quantity of labour. As the nominal value of their goods would fall, the
real value of what remained of their gold and silver would rise, and a
smaller quantity of those metals would answer all the same purposes of
commerce and circulation which had employed a great
If you sat down for a formal dinner with a space alien, you act like the table should have dinner forks and spoons arranged victorian style, like that's naturally how all beings in the universe arrange dinner tables. What a retard.
saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt? 11:21 And Moses said, The
people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand footmen; and thou
hast said, I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month.
11:22 Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice
them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them,
to suffice them? 11:23 And the LORD said unto Moses, Is the LORD's
hand waxed short? thou shalt see now whether my word shall come to
pass unto thee or not.
11:24 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD,
and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them
round about the tabernacle.
11:25 And the LORD came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and took
of the spirit that was upon him, and gave it unto the seventy elders:
and it came to pass, that, when the spirit rested upon them, they
prophesied, and did not cease.
I got an A in nonlinear controls. Nonlinear differential equations are the hardest thing in math, the most impressive. (I'm explaining to a shrink.)
Actually, nonlinear PARTIAL differential equations might be the hardest. Inseparable nonlinear partial differential equations... controling them. Yeah. Good enough. ROFLMAO
It dawned on me that fuel slosh in a rocket might be tough.
Download SimStructure http://www.losethos.com/files/SimStrSetUp.ZIP for fun with control systems. Use L00-W10-M70 as product key. It has my first C compiler built into it. Took a year to write SimStructure 2000-2001. LoseThos took 9 years.

Statistics--suddenly fuzzy numbers? Economics? Federal Reserve. God said He is most better than us in Economics.
I did a brute-force 3D flight simulator without a GPU. It took 8 cores at 2.6GHz for 640x480 16 color. My users are stupid programmers. I don't think they can do better. You can't do better, either.
First, GPUs exist for a reason!!! Second, a bubble sort sucks compared to quick sort. I'm not interested in good 3D algorithms. I'm not going to do nasty special case code to keep from redrawing what hasn't changed in a 3D flight simulator.
