The eternal struggle of process management in operating systems, summarized in silverware. When you desperately need to duplicate a running process, the OS just gives you a fork() — which is both literally the perfect tool and absolutely useless at the same time. Sure, it creates a child process, but now you've got two nearly identical processes and twice the existential dread. Ten years of systems programming and I still can't decide if this is brilliant design or the universe's cruelest joke.
