Random thought: should I try to do a conf talk somewhere on make?
Hey, if you want to give a talk on principles of declarative, use of implicit rules, etc. be my guest.
-
-
I prefer using my limited visibility to talk about init systems - that's something I can do better than most, which is not true for make!
-
If I was talking about make, it would mostly be advocacy over other build systems for bootstrap reasons.
-
I suspect what you want to say is about good Makefile design; it's a real issue, but moot if everyone uses the latest trendy tool instead.
-
What I want is for people to understand that make has been better at what the latest trendy tools do, for 20+ years, & just gets misused.
-
Also some DRY principles would be nice to get across.
