OCIS is a modern app that is massively better since its written with modern languages / frameworks

Ah, the sparkle makes it better? I know a guy who made his RAM light up in his plexiglas case, and claims it made the computer faster. Same deal?

OCIS talks a good talk, almost suggesting it’s enterprise and scalable and such, but it still suffers from the same supply-chain risk that all the black-box container miasma does, and the same “just get your kerbal space shuttle launching and then you too can host this awesome simple install” math. The ‘single black-box binary’ isn’t a good fall-back measure.

Now, I realize I’ve cast aspersions on our holy neu-paradigm installation fad, and I get the downvotes. If people don’t understand why validation is an important part of the validation-proves-consistency-thus-reliability of enterprise build/release, that’s okay. Most people don’t know they even need proper releng practice anyway, but may react with downvotes. But we need to do better where it matters; and that’s a line that’s going to seem as arbitrary as a bedtime is to a tween.
