Every professional programmer needs a desktop OS, and NixOS is really hard to beat. Switching to NixOS is like going from a car that is breaking down all the time to one that's reliable and easy to mod and repair. I don't recommen

Similar experience for me. In my company adopting nix paid off in weeks with no prior experience. Very happy with it almost 10 years later and at much larger scale. The difference between things working reliability or not is too big to over

You're spot on that all problems can be interpreted as a search problem. Similarly, all problems can be interpreted as a compression problem. Or parsing, boolean satisfiability, or halting, etc. It's helpful to keep them all in mi

My dream would be a database where Haskell is the query language. It's more expressive than SQL and more composable. Every time I see a new SQL feature that would be trivial in a modern language it feels like we're working harder
