If you want to know more about the Linux O(1) scheduler I can highly recommend reading Inside the Linux scheduler by Tim Jones. It is an excellent introduction into the world of scheduling in the Linux kernel without unnecessary filler clogging your brain.
I received this hilarious spam at work the other day. When you have to resort to spam to sell railroad tracks you are clearly not in the right business. At first I thought there would be a trojan or something like that embedded in the e-mail and that the body was just filler but I couldn’t find anything suspicious in the mail, well, except for the message itself that is.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. ^^
