> rewriting one of the cornerstone nix utils (loved by many nerds everywhere) But also hated by some nerds. I don't like to bring up my critiques of unix, because people seem conditioned to love it and couldn't do much about it anyway. People ignore (or get defensive about) things they feel they can't change. But there's lots of Unix-Haters out there. Kinda like Fight Club, except slightly more gender-inclusive. "Remember this. The people you're trying to dismiss, we're everyone you depend on. We're the people who write your embedded devices which cook your food. We make your toy Scheme implementations. We're monitoring your systems while you're asleep. Our systems route the ambulances. Our Erlang processes direct your call. We are Googlers and Facebook coders and we know everything about you. We process your insurance claims and credit card charges. We control every part of your life. So don't condescendingly quote man pages at us."
