What other platforms besides Windows do this?

-
Historically DOS and classic Mac OS toolchains had their own object formats too.

I don't think that's really true, PE is just COFF with additional bits which only apply at load time
-
Oh, I thought COFF was a Unix format that Windows repurposed. Maybe the original tweet should apply to vintage systems only (OMF => MZ)
-
That is true to some degree, COFF came from AT&T originally iirc

Object file formats are entirely internal to the toolchain right? Perhaps a consequence of consumer platforms traditionally having multiple competing commercial compilers, Unix has system toolchain
-
Yeah I figured this was partly Conway’s law at play. Unix was always expected to come with compilers, but they were sold separately with most consumer computers
-
how do Conway’s law fit in here with the outcome, "organizations which design systems ... are constrained to produce designs which are copies of the communication structures of these organizations."
-
Two companies build their own toolchain. They can only communicate on expensive international conference calls. Duplication ensues. Maybe another factor: build machines were expected to be more powerful than the consumer PCs running the final executable?

you ever used linux
-
I started in early 90´, it was fast then and still is
-
You ever tried to compile on your 286 and realise you had to either hotswap 4 floppies or use tiny C?
-
nee it was 386, worked fine Slackware, own compiled kernel with stuff
