Tridge on Threads

From samba-technical:

What is it about the word "thread" that people find so damn sexy?

Maybe it needs a name change "slow-as-hell-no-memory-protection-locks-dont-work" API might be suitable, but I suspect the standards committees wouldn't like that one.

The MMU was added to CPUs for a very good reason. Why is it so hard to understand that trying to avoid it is a bad idea?
