I like it, except the ambiguity with regard to existing tools, such as 'head' and 'tail'...

Seems like this one is easy to avoid by renaming them to car and cdr.

I love functional programming, but I hate bash. I'm conflicted.

Bash and ZSH is just awful. I can't count the number of times I should have abandoned a script, and start over with a scripting language like ruby, instead of expanding it into a large shell script.

But it's also like Javascript where it's everywhere. So it's very useful in some ways.

MacOS is removing Ruby and some other languages from being default-installed, but I don't think running rvm/brew installs is too much to ask (usually myself :p).

Bash is so terrible that I love using it. Its one of the most extreme language in that it has a lot of pros and a lot of cons.

Its also ironic adjacent that you want people to install ruby with homebrew but most people install homebrew with ruby.

Oh yeah good point about Ruby, ha. I didn't even think of that. I suddenly miss Linux and having an OS backed package manager.

The fact Apple hasn't fully embraced terminal users as an optional primary interface really bothers me. A package manager with a CLI should be part of every OS.

If I worked at Apple I'd be pushing the product team hard to embrace it. They're ignoring a big part of their operating system.

I love bash, but I hate functional programming. I'm conflicted.

nice examples
