91 because I also learned something about hurd that makes it even cooler.

You can have multiple instances of hurd running without virtualization and except for the micro controller don't have to share any processes (I believe you can have them share some processes though, which would make hurd even more awesome)

93 hurd is a computer kernel like linux. Both can be used to run the operating system called GNU (the thing you call Linux :p).
The difference between hurd and Linux is that hurd is a combination of a mircokernel and locally hosted servers to do whatever the kernel needs to do. Where as Linux (and pretty much every other main Kernel) has it all built in.

Hurd is of course open source as it was planned to be the kernel of GNU however Linux was earlier in an usable state and thus people started to use that instead.

Right now it is in a technical working state however it still has many bugs and missing features.


It's time [to] explain the meaning of "Hurd". "Hurd" stands for "Hird of Unix-Replacing Daemons". And, then, "Hird" stands for "Hurd of Interfaces Representing Depth". We have here, to my knowledge, the first software to be named by a pair of mutually recursive acronyms.

95 currently programming (I am pretty sure you didn't see that one coming :p)
and from the stuff I got during high school (I believe it translates to that) it is hard to choose.
I liked biology because it was easy for me.
I kind of liked math, depending on the subject.
And I have no idea how to translate the last thing I liked, I even forgot the dutch word for it >_<
(had to do with electricity and stuff like that)

93 a book from one of my school objects says that Internet Explorer, Netscape and another browser are the most populars one. It's VERY outdated
