Because the litany of shittily written bash scripts don’t hoard state, or what exactly are you saying?
The only thing I dislike about systemd is that it is written in C, but otherwise it is a single purpose solution to the surprisingly complex problem of managing services during boot and running. I fail to see how state is relevant here — if it were written in Haskell it would also have state, almost by definition it has to handle external state. No Monad would help you there, there is just correct and not correct software.
- kasabali 4y ago> single purpose solution You can't be saying this with a straight face. systemd project subsumes functionality of - device hotplug - user session manager - cron - logging - network management - time zone management - time sync - cgroup manager - deleting /tmp files - DNS resolver - UEFI boot manager and also dozen other things I've forgotten.
- kaba0 4y agoYou do realize that there is a systemd project and a systemd program. Is the plasma5 shell bloated because under the KDE umbrella there are hundreds of other projects?
