This is one of those places where Bash diverges from POSIX. The standard says `echo &>/dev/null' is two commands, namely `echo &' and `>/dev/null', but Bash interprets it as redire…

Since when `{...}' syntax is a glob pattern? What does `{a,b}/c' produce when there is no directory named `a'?

I can't think of a language that isn't simpler compared to C++

It is valid C89. greet is automatically declared as int greet(); at call site.

All fair points. What do other languages' standard libraries do to walk around clone3 then? If two threads share file descriptors but not virtual memory, do they perform some kind …
