Totally off topic: great blog. I was reading the archives these days, they’re awesome ;)



Thanks! Feel free to comment (with the reddit links at the bottom of each post)


My two main comments would be:

1. Keep up the great work (both oil and the blog!) Both seem fun :)

2. Reading your blog really shows that despite the great ideas, shell languages come from an age where computing was still in its infancy. We’re now approaching our teen years, but we’re still ahead of infants. So many awkward design decisions and organic evolutions. A shame that replacing POSIX at this point is a gargantuan undertaking.
