jrwreni wonder what he means by mixing state and configuration. What is configuration if not state?14:22
cmaloneyUm...14:55
cmaloneyI don't like his assertion about immutable etc14:55
cmaloneyetc is configuration. It's the literal embodiment of configuration14:56
jrwreni agree.14:56
jrwrenhow is that different than state?14:56
cmaloneyI'm going ot have to look at this later, because I don't think he's solving what he thinks he's solving14:58
jrwreni think he is, but I think he is accepting a whole great number of additional constraints which he isn't talking about.14:59
cmaloneyINdeed14:59
cmaloneyI just watched the first 5 minutes and my head tilted about 30 degrees14:59
cmaloneyI don't want it to come off15:00
jrwrenI hope he studies otehr systems /etc/passwd replacements like digital unix TCB ;)15:00
cmaloneyYes, becausse we're all clamoring for THAT.15:01
cmaloneyor ndis15:01
cmaloneyI look forward to lppasswd. ;)15:01
jrwrenugh... 21min in his "solution" to ssh logins, isn't a solution at all. it is a work around. I really wish he would state what problem he is solving. Thankfully, distros wont adopt this... i hope.15:12
brouschI think of the difference as configuration is what it is supposed to be, and state is how it really is15:25
brouschOr initial configuration compared to state while running15:26
cmaloneyI wish folks would stop with the idea that /etc is read-only15:27
jrwrenthe QA starts to make more sense.15:27
cmaloneyThat seems like the first stumbling block15:27
greg-ghello from Portland16:50
jrwrenIs it weird?16:55

greg-gI watched an old pearl jam live performance of Alive last night to help keep it alive (see what I did there?)17:05
cmaloneywill you be doing this all week? :)17:08
* cmaloney wants to plan ahead.17:08
greg-glistening to pearl jam? probably :P17:08
