Why on earth are people acting like this is bizarre.

Nothing about Repl.it is even remotely unique. And in fact, it seems like they're finally catching on (RE: their post about Nix). Egotistical CEO trying to protect their tiny moat? As typical as the sun shining.

Nix + Theia + a team of moderately dedicated folks could replicate the important parts of Repl.it in a month. I'd bet my fucking life on it. Mostly because I've done it and I'm a highly unmotivated pot-head.
