your hobby OS might be a piece of poo poo but the OS dev wiki sure isn't!!! https://wiki.osdev.org/Main_Page

fuuuck that name is bringing back memories. i'm pretty sure that site is what i used when i dabbled in system programming back in high school. most i ever did was a basic bootloader, setting up protected mode and associated cpu data, and i think i got some lovely pio ata driver working (maybe only partially, i don't remember for sure). for whatever reason to this day i still remember that the initial sector is loaded at 0x7c00 on pc. i'm sure this piece of knowledge will be useful someday

that wiki is definitely way more complete and organized than whatever it was back then. i guess that nearly, uh, 20 years of people adding to it will do that. kids have it so easy these days

make all the "assume a spherical cow in vacuum" jokes you want, but once physicists find a problem they like they absolutely will model that cow down to the atmospheric drag of cowhide as a function of temperature, humidity, and ratio of areas of white and black patches

also, i keep wanting to comment or discuss links people post here but then i remember that THE MAN has decreed this thread should stay free of clutter, so maybe i should create a parallel discussion thread or something
