alt Hacker News>A change in paradigm is necessary. Freestanding C, not hosted C. This completely gets rid of the libc and is a surprisingly clean language. Linux only, because it's the only kernel with a stable binary interface. Every other OS forces a C runtime.

Yes, but the whole idea is to delete the runtime binary and talk to the kernel directly.
That's when you run into the Darth Vader of binary interfaces.
