Howto kill children


I was reading a (assummably normal) book when I stumbled upon the following (hidden?) chapters:

10.4.1 Having Children
10.4.2 Watching Your Children Die
10.4.5 Killing Yourself
10.4.6 Killing Others
Quote:
"There are two choices for how to kill a child."

Bizarre? No, the chapters are in the "Linux Application Development SE" book (ISBN 0-321-21914-7). The chapter is about processes and threads in the linux kernel, although after reading this and seeing that the highest PID number in my linux machine now is 27682 there must have been some mass murder in my linux machine. What happened to all the children (and their parents)?

Want to drop me a line? email me. I always read your email, and if you are the lucky one, I will send a reply.

Kind regards, DiNo
