-# Advanced Topic: Related Work
-
-## Bazel
-
-TODO skylark and layering.
-
-TODO being monadic, if RFC 92.
-
-## Build Systems à la Carte
-
-TODO user-choosen keys vs keys chosen automatically?
-Purity in face of dynamic tasks (no conflicts, guaranteed).
-
-TODO Does Nix constitute a different way to be be monadic?
-Purity of keys, as mentioned.
-Dynamic tasks/keys vs dynamic dependencies.
-(Not sure yet.)
-
-## Lazy evaluation
-
-We clearly have thunks that produce thunks, but less clearly functions that produce functions.
-
-Do we have open terms?
-
-Do we hve thunks vs expressions distinction?
-c.f. John Shutt's modern fexprs, when the syntax can "leak".
-
-## Comparison with Git file system model
-
-This is close to Git's model, but with one crucial difference:
-Git puts the "permission" info within the directory map's values instead of making it part of the file (blob, in it's parlance) object.
-
-    data GitObject
-      = Blob ByteString
-      | Tree (Map FileName (Persission, FSO))
-
-    data Persission
-      = Directory -- IFF paired with tree
-      -- Iff paired with blob, one of:
-      | RegFile
-      | ExecutableFile
-      | Symlink
-
-So long as the root object is a directory, the representations are isomorphic.
-There is no "wiggle room" the git way since whenever the permission info wouldn't matter (e.g. the child object being mapped to is a directory), the permission info must be a sentinel value.
-
-However, if the root object is a blob, there is loss of fidelity.
-Since the permission info is used to distinguish executable files, non-executable files, and symlinks, but there isn't a "parent" directory of the root to contain that info, these 3 cases cannot be distinguished.
-
-Git's model matches Unix tradition, but Nix's model is more natural.
-
-## Machine models
-
-TODO
-Derivations as store objects via drv files makes Nix a "Von Neumann" archicture.
-Can also imagine a "Harvard" archicture where derivations are stored separately?
-Can we in general imagine N heaps for N different sorts of objects?
-
-TODO
-Also, leaning on the notion of "builtin builders" more, having multiple different sorts of user-defined builders too.
-The builder is a black box as far as the Nix model is concerned.
