-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 The problem with the systemd environment is not amenable to patching. In fact, the psychology of patching, more code fixes anything, is one of the primary problems with systemd.
- From a purely mathematical perspective, aside from the ingenuous attitude of the developers: What is effectively a monolithic applications is undertaking too many non orthogonal tasks. As such, it is not possible to compute a realistic level of complexity nor fully realize completeness even in a restricted topology. It is, in fact, a typical hacked together application without regard to synergy, predictability, order of work, optimal algorithms and orthogonal design. Compatibility is not a necessity. If Linux moves in multiple directions, so be it. Systemd, Gnome and KDE and other do everything in one fat and potentially pathological package. Such venues are usually the product Microsoft but it would seem that many ordinary users are now tired of the cost and inability to move MS products to new machines and are looking for a free or mostly free alternative. Most end users are convinced that computers and especially software is inherently not reliable. Software is not inherently unreliable; if it were, there would be a lot more aircraft crashing and cars doing unusual things. To reiterate, more code does not necessarily cure a bad application, particularly when the design of the application is poor and/or its working topology is ill defined. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iF4EAREIAAYFAlTP+rUACgkQpY/BHpBmP2qthwD/fZsdJ8bUe1B6emy7DBbh3fvA +HkhBDjdXNhWL50Msi8BAIL/xqeEwkFTOkmvcjCCfNpgcH+ODMVOyliOU4N/Q7ow =SdLI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
