This old USENIX paper has turned up on Hacker News etc today, so I thought it interesting to share: http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~KeyKOS/NanoKe ... ernel.html

It seems topical to think and talk about security. Here's a very nice note about Linux security: https://grsecurity.net/~spender/interview_notes.txt

Really interesting note. Developers should pay attention to it.
