问HN：现在是微内核 *nix 操作系统的好时机吗？
我不太记得具体情况，但我相信当初选择宏内核而非微内核的理由现在大部分已经不再重要了。如果我没记错的话，微内核一直更安全，而这一点现在比以往任何时候都重要。我需要确认一下，但我们是否仍然在全64位的采用上落后？我认为通过更新的内核/操作系统会更好地实现这一目标。最后，人工智能仍然相对较新，并且在特定用途上可能不会像将来那样受到限制或昂贵。它们能否帮助逆向工程驱动程序？我认为这可能是最大的障碍之一。我过去读过关于Redox的资料，但它似乎是一个由一个人主导的项目，多年来基本上被搁置，十年后仍然没有脱离测试版，如果我没记错的话。
我是一名中年业余用户/爱好者。所以，我真的在问。最后，我想知道Linux内核是否像《哈利·波特》中的韦斯利家那样，即有点像一个由许多部分堆叠而成的怪物，整体看起来有些不整齐，尽管功能上可用，但在某种程度上还是显得有些混乱，和一个设计良好的“新”房子相去甚远。再次强调，我只是问问。这些大部分内容超出了我的理解范围。

I forget exactly, but I believe that the original reasons the macrokernel was chosen over the microkernel are largely moot now. The microkernel was always more secure, if my memory serves. That is more important now than it ever was. I need to check but aren't we still behind on full 64 bit adoption? I would be think that we be better achieved through a newer kernel/OS. Lastly, AIs are still relatively new and not as locked down and/or expensive as they may become for specific purposes. Couldn't they help reverse engineer drivers? Which I would think would be one of the largest obstacles. I've read about Redox in the past, but it seemed to be a one man project that was largely abandoned for years and after 10 years it's still not out of beta, if I'm not mistaken.<p>I'm a middle aged +, amateur user/enthusiast. So, I'm really asking. Lastly, I wonder if the Linux kernel is like the Weasley house in Harry Potter i.e. kind of a monster with parts on top of parts , with the whole being more unruly and although functional is a bit of an unruly mess at this point that doesn't resemble anything like a good overall design like a good "new" house could be. Again, just asking. Most of this is well beyond my understanding.
