Am I out of touch?
No, it’s the forward-thinking generation of software engineers that want elegant, reliable, declarative systems that are wrong.
I want this but without learning a new functional language to do it.
Just waiting for one that requires you to compile one Monad to define your whole distro. Types all the way.
Then I’m writing a blog post how your Linux distro is a burrito.
But an immutable distro is not necessarily declarative, and the other way around.
Why lump them together?
I’m guessing this refers to the not entirely separate groups of Nix(OS), Haskell, XMonad fans
Don’t forget us Bluefin/Aurora people either
Imagine being so devoid of soul and spirit you turn your OS into kubernetes
