This is a super cool visual demonstration of RTOS/scheduling! I love the region-based critical sections!

I took a real-time operating systems course in university as an elective. One of the hardest courses I took the whole four years, but also one of the most interesting. Had a great professor, who gave really demanding, but very instructive, project-based assignments.

I need to find a toy project to play around with this domain again.

Thank you!

I'm curious how effective you feel this specific example might've been if it were delivered during your course. I suspect I've stumbled across a really helpful teaching tool, but having not gone to university, I don't actually know how this stuff is being taught :v

Nor I, but I've learned from the metaphor, for what that's worth. And the demystification of primitives has considerable value these days.

It's the sickest possible outcome for me, so: worth a lot!
