 I began looking for a way to reliably detect WSL to change its default setting 
for tcp-fastopen, if not outright disable it. 

For Python at least, I came cross this:
https://github.com/scivision/pybashutils/blob/master/pybashutils/os_detect.py

And as for C, I came across this: 
https://github.com/Microsoft/WSL/issues/423#issuecomment-221627364
```
I can't promise that we'll never change the content of these ProcFs files, but 
I think it's unlikely we'll change it to something that doesn't contain 
"Microsoft" or "WSL".

/proc/sys/kernel/osrelease
/proc/version
```

Also interesting to point out that `uname -r | sed -n 's/.*\( *Microsoft 
*\).*/\1/p'` will always output 'Microsoft'.
