- the idea of a distribution is to create a user experience
  - you log into your computer and install a program and everything just works
  - or: something doesn't work... what are your next steps?
- you create an experience
- the distribution is that brings all the pieces together: installation, service management (systemd, openrc, initd), kernel updates, support

- lesson: composition
  - functions
  - libraries
  - programs (unix)
- lesson: specifications
  - LSP (open source milestone)
- lesson: caring about features and code instead of maintenance and collaborations

- lesson: dicatorships work

- decision making (processes)
  - lightweight when risk of mistakes is low (can revert?)

- tests in CI are garbage

- reverse dependencies <-> me <-> users
- collaboration vs boundaries, communication


- what distribution work taught me for programming
- posix principles and their connection to functional programming (streams)

- navigation

- strings
- open source politics
- how to drive change
- how to handle contributions (contribution experience, PRs, documentation, mentoring,. ..)
- collaboration
- relationship between industry and FOSS
- what is the main currency (money vs energy)
- bus factor
- feedback from universities regarding Haskell tooling
- respect other projects when contributing
- enabling and supporting (switching from coding wizard to support role)
- project life cycles
- support
- stability vs. ..
- boundaries vs collaboration
- trust, respect, relationship
- working mode in open source
- dealing with expectations
- how to test (on the end users system)
- what if you diverge from the happy path
- why is stability an interesting goal?
