Why is it that this post is on the front page with no comments about the actual contents of the post and yet the first comment is about "the old BeOS days" again?
I guess that the lack of comments around this project indicates the extreme technical detail of low level operating system code which is over the heads of >90% of HN readers which I want to see such posts like this here rather than yet another copy-and-paste LLM project.
This report is nicely presented and offers a neat explanation into what was done around hardware-assisted virtualization with the goal of using the NetBSD NVVM driver in another OS to support this in QEMU.
This is a very common phenomenon, and it's especially apparent if you specialize in some area that is fashionable on HN. The right things to do are to upvote good hardcore technical specialist content, and to contribute comments in the same vein. Sometimes, with a really good story, there just isn't much to say anyways; there doesn't need to be.

Great job to them.
