Full system updates without a reboot? Sign me up.
This truly is God’s country
Not necessarily, maybe the main kernel has to keep running so you won’t be able to hot swap that (haven’t read the thing yet). In any case we’ve had updates without reboot for a while for a while, but it’s a pain to set up, there’s even a song about it https://youtu.be/SYRlTISvjww
What the fuck this is the best idea ever
That’s kind of hilarious. At first we had VMs to run entirely separate operating systems. Then we had Containers to separate everything except the kernel. And now we might get separation for just the kernel.
If I have a container with an isolated kernel, is it just a VM?
Well, there’s a separate technology stack for virtualization. So, it would be similar in effect, but the way you get there is different, and it’s possible that it performs better or worse for certain scenarios.
