Packages, Not Programs

> packages, not programs

Let me fix that for you: packages, and programs

You put all the logic in a library.

You reference the library in a very small program.

The main() functions inside those small programs are usually one or two screens worth of lines.

> Packages are a force multiplier

With NixOS, programs are packages.

This seems silly, a Hello World package benefits no one. Programmers make the conscious decision about whether they're developing a program or a library and not everything is suited to a library. Why would a game developer want to allow you to import their game as a package?

I get the point about packages, but creating a separate package to host the tests for another package sounds a bit silly to me.
