The politics of language design (lixcon2026)

from Chaos Computer Club - recent events feed (low quality) · host Pierre-Étienne Meunier

This talk is about Elpe, a mixture of ideas from Nix, Docker and Ubuntu/Debian/RHEL, with a strong focus on performance and security. I'll talk about the design choices I've made, and demo the thing and about how choices that may seem purely technical can have extreme political consequences. I'll also explain how such choices can have deep and lasting consequences on the dynamics of growing organisations.
