You can accept the performance hit of a microkernel for most parts of the hardware.

Video is the exception. Which is why hybrid kernels have been the way to go for some time.

If Moore's law survives another decade we can afford to go full microkernel. As you say there are applications where it works today.

Comment Re:School me on well water (Score 1) 328

The people I know in the hills have water in the wells, just not enough to keep their crops wet. They can afford water trucks, unless the price of 'medicine' crashes.

N Cal central valley wells are still mostly wet. S Cal on the other hand is dry as hell. Which is the unspoken part of the CA water crisis. S Cal expects N Cal to suffer with them (and give them all our water). The only reason my water is even metered is LA threw a tantrum.

Nobody actually cares about the delta smelt, they are minnows. But it's the only way to prevent S Cal from voting themselves all our water.
