I'm considering switching my personal servers (on Digital Ocean) from Ubuntu to Debian. I essentially just need something running Docker for most of my projects. Debian seems to require upgrading less often. Any opinions?

I really like base-2 prefixes in writing, e.g. 1 KiB, 2 MiB, 3 GiB and so on. It's way more explicit. However, SI units are k M G and so on. Switching between lowercase k and uppercase Ki keeps tripping me up.

I really like the MELPA model of packaging directly from git. It solves the problem of forgetting to release something -- just merge a PR and you're done. It also makes version number bumps much less important. You could go even further in a statically typed language and also figure out when breaking changes occur.
