Hey gang,

KernelTrap is running an interesting interview with Australian hacker
(though it sounds like he wouldn't admit to having that title), Con Kolivas.
One comment that intruiged me:

  "Magic numbers should be autoregulated by the kernel. They should be
  variable and work from some sort of feedback loop. My experience with
  human physiology has shown me that there are an almost infinite number of
  autoregulated feedback loop type control systems in the human body that
  give it incredible flexibility to cope under all sorts of situations. I
  believe, and hope, that this approach could add to the flexibility of the
  linux kernel."
