I completely agree, that's what I wanted to see.

The goal of an HELLO WORLD is not to show it's printed, but the process of what everything is need to print HELLO WORLD. Every step, and every word and concept needs to be explained.

Therefore this article is not a proper HELLO WORLD exemple.

OS is not part of an HELLO WORLD example.

Usually it goes something like this, for example HTML:

<!doctype html>

<html>

<body>HELLO WORLD</body>

</html>

Then you explain what a tag is, why they need closing or not, what the body is, etc. This is a basic HELLO WORLD example. If I dumped the above code and says done, that will be useless to anybody.

If "hello world" is about the process to get to showing "hello world" then I guess some part of the OS/computer is stone and chisels.
