Jobs,

process has at least one thread of execution, and a thread always run
in a process

Who did invented this crazy issolated text.

For me is a process a particular course of action intended to achieve a

A thread is a main or subprocess inside this process, which does not exist

Actually, in this context, threads and processes are actual hardware
constructs of the x86 CPU (not of Windows, nor some other OS) and not
general "ideas" as you describe them... and that "crazy issolated text" is
totally correct.

But, I guess applying existententialism to computers is always fun! ;-)
