Maybe an apt analogy for the "not food" described here could be YAML and other config. I have seen way too much logic buried in strings in miscellaneous config files. It's so annoying to work with.
- m463 6y agoThat was my initial impression of systemd. Systemd has these stupid config files. And by stupid, I mean that literally. They replaced init files (with arguably too much logic) with these simplistic config files that have no logic available. What ends up happening is you replace init files with nothing, and you have to push out any logic to an intermediate script or binary which just adds indirection.
