Lol as I'm keeping notes, this reminded me of the importance of impermanence in nixos

The state also ends up marginalising "our" representatives

  • As power rests not in the elected bodies, but in a bureaucracy, popular control becomes increasingly meaningless
    • It's the institutions that have power in the state due to their permanence, not the representatives who come and go

What if the leftovers of programs in the filesystem make up the bureaucracy of the operating system? And thats why we try to make state-less systems?
