Ultimately, I think nobody cares anymore about POSIX.



I am not sure about that. POSIX has some benefits, and its features are commonly used; however, there are also some problems.

There are other operating system specifications too, but I also wanted to make one operating system design, and I also wanted to avoid many of the problems with POSIX.

I did not konw that POSIX says that 2100 is a leap year, and clearly that is no good.


What I meam by that is 100% compatibility is not something we strive for anymore if parts/of it do not make any sense in 2024.
