Mark Carroll's Journal

Mmmm, my main annoyances are having to dig through layers of role and variable-following and whatnot to check specifically what something actually does (and then finding the underlying module vague) (I'm the kind of person who digs into the source of third-party libraries) and the fact that it's yet another thing that doesn't solve a problem that I actually have. It's a nice idea but for anything I do I am fine with just noting shell scripts, etc. to bring a vanilla installation into line with what I want and if its state starts to get out of hand then I just attach the data volume to another fresh-made and ditch the previous. Still, I concede that on this latest attempt it's turning out to be less awful than I'd feared.
