Copying something else is different from actually creating something.
Is FOSS over?

project oberon was made by one man though, and he wasn't a schizophrenic either. you need to ask serious questions like why create something nobody will use.
if the goal is a proof of concept that nobody has done before then fine but if all you do is reinvent the wheel you are doomed before you start.
is the goal security? if so then use a beowulf cluster over multiple architectures, so that if one machine is compromised the system goes down, or gets rebooted.

You wish, just look at all that crappy banking software banks are still stuck with after some faggot shat out some spaghetti code over half a century ago.
Even if it doesn't end up used, it may influence other OSes for the better. For example, Oberon influenced the creation of Acme which still has a decent following today (even if Sam's is bigger).

Look at all that software that has been working for more than half a century and everyone else since then has been too incompetent to replace or even replicate. Clearly, we are better than the people that made it. We are just too good to do it, if you really think about it. You can't read their source? Well, then you must be too good to understand it. Writing software is a social activity. Everyone knows it has nothing to do with computers.
Consider suicide.

There are a shitton of proprietary software fags oldfags on the internet less so nowadays who admitted they did this for job security, and now they even get their own Internet Defense Force. Is writing bad software the real coderpill?
Austin Ward
just fucking fork their project jesus christ it isn't that hard
Alexander Walker
t. never forked a project with frequent breaking changes
Kevin Russell
you can fork it but if the goal is to get the codes to the upstream project then it might not help
