We can't touch named pipes. Let's add %INTERNAL_NOTIFICATION_SYSTEM%! And let's make it inconsistent with virtually every other named NT primitive.
Linux does this motherfucking bullshit too. "Oh, systemd is piss slow? We'll bung d-bus straight into the kernel, right along side the over 9000 other IPC mechanisms. Everybody uses d-bus these days, it's an Essential System Component. What? Systemd is a crap idea to start with? People like you should be committed."
Considering linux actually hasn't done this yet, that seems like a weak argument. Are there better examples?
Update in the original article:
Besides: you guys have systemd, which if I'm going to treat it the same way I treated NTFS, is an all-devouring octopus monster about crawl out of the sea and eat Tokyo and spit it out as a giant binary logfile.
