What Hacker News says
6 sourcesThe main repo hasn't been updated since February: https://github.com/NodeOS/NodeOS-Docker
In Node OSThis link seems to have detail than the homepage.
https://github.com/NodeOS/NodeOS-Docker#introduction
In Node OSGreat, more badass rockstar ninja developers using the newly discovered 201x techniques of async coding to disrupt the operating system.
My beef is not that the author is playing around with using an actually pretty awesome dynamic language as an operating environment; it's that the author doesn't explain that what they're doing is actually, you know, an operating system.
How are you booting? How are you writing to the file system--and which? How do you handle multiple users? How do you handle device IO? How about scheduling?
I want so badly to be able to take projects like this seriously, but it can be hard sometimes.
EDIT:
Ah, so, this is just Node sitting on top of Linux ( https://github.com/NodeOS/Docker-NodeOS ). Would've been nice if that was mentioned in the article.

Hmm...what's the word for it when the OS suspends your pro

gram while waiting on IO for it...a sink ro nose? a sink rose? Bah, I can't remember--that's just old boring shit from the dinosaur ages of computing anyways.
Very pretty diagrams and logos, but is there any code at all right now? The github repo is empty. https://github.com/NodeOS/NodeOS
Edit: ah, it currently resides inside the Docker-Node repository: https://github.com/NodeOS/Docker-NodeOS
In NodeOS: a "hacker-friendly operating" system written in Node.js"Fork me on GitHub" Okay, where's the code?
The NodeOS GitHub organisation has a handful of repos. https://github.com/NodeOS
