为什么说“不要同时格式化软盘”谈论线程和进程时有趣吗？ [英] Why was the comment that said "Don't format a floppy at the same time" funny when talking about threads and processes?

问题描述

我正在阅读线程与过程，并在第二个答案中发现用户留下的评论，其中指出了

只要您不格式化一个软盘在同一时间。

它有27个upvotes，但没有人解释它背后的原因。

我想知道评论者的意思是什么时候他说了上面的评论？

有人可以提出一个更有意义的问题名称反映了问题的症结所在

解决方案

在Windows早期，当格式化过程中断时，软盘可能会崩溃，的软盘本身还在移动。所以，如果多任务操作系统Windows真的执行了一项耗时的任务，则必须丢弃软盘。所以有趣的是，微软称这是一个多任务操作系统。

I was reading up the difference between Thread and Processes and came across the comment left by users in the second answer which stated

As so long as you don't format a floppy at the same time.

It has 27 upvotes but no one has explained the reason behind it .

I would like to know what the commentor means when he said the above comment ??

Can someone suggest a more meaningful question name which reflects what the question is asking

解决方案

In the early days of Windows, a floppy could be crashed when the formatting process was interrupted because of the floppy disk itself was still moving. So, if the 'multitasking operating system' Windows really executes a different time consuming task, you had to throw away your floppy. So the funny thing is, that Microsoft called that mess a 'multitasking operation system'.
