how did we get to the point when we're surprised that a repository includes the latest version of a tool released "just" half a year ago? Now I see why people talk that much about #NixOS.

@orsinium I know somebody who is very disappointed that bookworm doesn't have golang 1.20 when it was released "months ago". I think I can see why - bookworm was already partially frozen then. But explaining this doesn't help.

On the other hand it does look like golang 1.20 got into nixos 23.05, if I am reading this correctly.

Thats quite fast for debian.
And that being fast for debian, is the mainreasen to not use debian on the desktop. (Which I did for a very long time btw.)
