Ok but the radio station change might cause my car to spontaneously combust so I should make a new car from scratch with my car factory just in case, that way I’ll still have a car.
I like to think it’s fitting for the analogy that with NixOS/Guix, you get access to the entire factory to build your car, since you pretty much have a framework at your disposal to build up your system how you want it.
Edit: should’ve scrolled a bit further, someone already beat me to it lol. Great minds think alike.
Nah NixOS is a picture of a factory automatically making cars
“I want to change the radio station, get me a new car!”
You wouldn’t download a new car each time you want to download a new car.

Never change, NixOS
That’s actually a realy good comparison!
3D printing cars.
More exactly, the typewriter used to send commands to the car factory. Steampunk style
The Delorian works too, but my brain jumped to something like this…
“Car as code” felt appropriate lol
