This picture is incomplete.

You need another guy on the ledt side, just casually watching as the others fight. That's Debian.

The poor dude being shoved into the locker is Suse.

The bully is Ubuntu.

Now we need a bigger guy behind the bully, waiting to get his hands on the bully. That will be RedHat.

Arch will be behind RedHat, getting ready to punch him in the face.

Gentoo will be right behind Arch, laughing like a maniac at the carnage unfolding.

And to the far right side of the picture you get to see this underrated guy, just shrugging his shoulders. That's LFS.

let me paint you a different picture

i'm the one shoving you into a locker.

I was never small enough to fit in one, nor fun enough to be picked on. Plus, I was prone to fight back; I had very little to lose.

Next to Debian, I'd risk.

In the shame corner wearing a dunce cap for copying NixOS without making the language situation any better (like, say, static typing).

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I now the principle of nixos and assume guix works kinda the same. Tell me what's the problem with static typing and nix in general that guix could have improved upon?!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Absence of static typing is what's wrong with nix.
