Poll: Have you ever compiled #Linux kernel (e.g. cyberciti.biz/tips/compiling-l)?

@nixCraft just imagine how many more people would be able and willing to do this if the kernel was as quick and easy to compile as #plan9. Maybe we wouldn’t need to package precompiled kernels anymore. And then maybe most packages would be designed for ease of compilation, removing the need for packaging systems.

@nixCraft as an admirer of Plan9 amd Forth, I have to wonder if C is the only choice to implement systems (even with string-as-return-value-of-main etc.)
