Operating systems & kernels Videos Recommended on Hacker News (111)

Operating systems & kernels is one of the 150 topics Hacker News readers organize their video recommendations around. These 111 videos each earned real recommendations in real HN threads between 2007 and 2026 — 279 recommendations in total — and they're ranked by how many separate months the community kept coming back to them, not by view count.

Operating systems: kernels, scheduling, virtual memory, Unix, BSD, Windows internals, microkernels, virtualization, containers, OS research, system calls, boot process.

Why HN keeps sending people here — on The Tragedy of systemd: “is an interesting talk on this topic from the view of someone (Benno Rice) in BSD land. Highly recommended.” — an HN commenter, 2024.
