The Future of Linux

Name: Anonymous 2008-10-11 17:01

How will GNU/Linux look in 10 years? 20 years?

I think beautiful.

Making stuff explicit is nicer for reading. Also if one used to program a m68k while they were growing up, the "source on the left" form is more natural.

It's not nicer for typing.

Yes it is, the more you have to type the more time you have to think.

And it's not like anyone actually WRITES assembly.

In 5 years Linux will be dominated by TronOS and will only be used by old web servers.

You're one of those guys who make constants like TWO_HUNDRED_AND_TWENTY_THREE and function like substractOneToTheSupliedArgumentUsingTwosCompliment, aren't you?

How do you compliment a two, anyway? Perhaps "you're looking rather even today"?

Poster >>58 hasn't even posted yet. If you meant to type >>50, that means you were off by two keyboard keys if you were using the number row, or four keys if you were using numpad. One may conclude that you either have:
* Tiny toddler hands
* A large keyboard
* Combination of above two options.

Linux will be replaced with Symta OS, where everything is a function and function is everything. Because Symta is just more concise than your C/C++ and Bash, functions provide better abstraction than files or Smalltalk-like objects.

Symta:
X add 5; add 7; add foo

Smalltalk:
x add: 5; add: 7; add: 'foo'

SymtaOS will be equal in usefulness to Symta proper and it's author. Sadly, that means that it will be a net drain on society after you count in the time wasted knowing about it.

I don't know.  I do think if you had walked up to Dennis Ritchie in 1990 and told him that in 20 years Unix would look like Linux he would have slapped you.
