No mention of NixOS, which is miles ahead of every other operating system in terms of developer time spent tweaking endless configuration...


Pretty sure they mentioned it:

> NixOS is the only one that we didn't hate. Technically, it's a marvel, but the learning curve is too high. Because who has time to learn a new system when you can just stick with what you know and complain about it?


Oh my bad, I missed that! That's well said. NixOS really does solve a lot of this but with the steepest learning curve I've ever seen.
