Most machines works all the time. During maintenance reboots I can
wait a few seconds more. But the complete lack of simplicity and
transparency is horrible. Binary logs are horrible, too. Logs are
mostly needed when some troubles arises. In that situation they should
be accessible as easy and fast as possible. Often there will be no
possibility to start a dedicated binary log analyzer. You need only
"more" and "sed" to deal with text logs. systemd with no possibility
to stay with SystemV is a horrible mistake.
From what I've read about the history and philosophy of all 'nix, I
thought it was a bedrock rule that primary inputs and outputs *must* be
text. Especially any sort of error log! To abandon that is to travel
down the road to Redmond, is it not? Mr. Poettering seems to be a very
clever lad, and it seems that some real deficiencies in the old init
have been identified, and some real solutions offered, but it looks to
me like systemd needs a sober re-think. Sometimes we really can be too
clever for our own good.
