Nix language changes

This document contains some ideas for additions to the Nix language.

Motivation

The Nix package manager, Nixpkgs and NixOS currently have several problems:

  • Poor discoverability of package options. Package functions have function arguments like enableFoo, but there is no way for the Nix UI to discover them, let alone to provide programmatic ways to

Yeah, I think I See What You Mean

tl;dr You should watch this.

It's interesting to me that a significant number of talks in this year's Strange Loop conference referenced a 1966 paper by Peter Landin called (somewhat tongue in cheek) "The Next 700 Programming Languages". In this paper, Landin describes a programming language which he says in a footnote might be aptly called "Church without the lambda" - but which in the paper is called "If You See What I Mean" (ISWIM).

Alvaro's talk delved deeply into the question of "What is the semantics or meaning of a program?" Alvaro's thesis is that the meaning of a program is to produce desired outcomes from a computing system but that current languages focus on

Semiprivate Keys

🚨 DANGER: INSECURE! 🚨

Semi-private keys are an expansion of the traditional idea
