His posted sometime in his blog that this is on agenda. Can't say when though.

GP is kind of right though. Flakes are effectively packages for Nix expressions. Even priginal Flakes RFC calls this out. But the difference is, as you mentioned, flakes are integrated within Nix, and provide better ergonomics.

I am not well versed with Ansible, but I understand it to be imperative while Nix is declarative. Put another way, if you add a package to your playbook and then remove it, the package is still there on your system until you remove it old f

Thanks, I was not aware of this. I will try it out. On another note, do you have any idea why Pi foundation still recommends 32bit images for Raspbian?
276.
by e3bc54b2 5y ago
I'm not worried about initial setup time, but consecutive updates. But looks like I was wrong and there is a cache as long as I use aarch64. I'm not sure why Pi foundation recommends 32bit image, but NixOS should be fine imo.

stardenburden described it very well, but I'll try another go. If you have ever reinstalled Windows, you probably had to hunt,download and reconfigure every single piece of software on your system to get it back to previous state. That

I've been wanting to use Nix(OS) on my Pi for a year now. But from what I understand, there is no binary cache for ARM yet. Building every required package on Pi is out of the question and I don't have another persistent system fo

Caste system, at least where I live (which I believe to be fairly progressive part of country, as my travels have revealed there are worse places) is like a strong undercurrent to the social psychosis. It is not obvious to the newcomer, and

Which in this case is equivalent to 'if you owe 10k to Bank its your problem, but if you owe 10M its the bank's problem'. One way or another Mozilla relies on Google remaining its customer for vast majority of money, while Go

Considering those same employers also get massive subsidies for every kind of self-inflicted damage, which results in massive C-suit cash-outs and buy-backs, this is the least the commons could hope for.

Do you have documentation or any blog post on your setup? Lsat I tried snapcast, it worked, but eventually had too much lag between nodes. And there is no UI bundled by default, so I was wondering what the most mature frontend would be.

Try fzf. It lets searching recursively and out of order through history, file system, and can be inserted anywhere in a pipe.

I'd believe their target isn't users who are already using Linux, but users who will be using Linux for first time going forward. Think all the university students who made Linux the system to develop on will now make Linux on W

That has been a long and steady trajectory for Mozilla. Personally I think they're trying to create another walled garden for themselves and/or trying to make a buck while making sure they don't give stupid reason to Google f

Ubuntu has weird ads in the apt upgrade or something like that promoting their other services. They also sneak in their Snap package for Chromium even if user asks apt to do it. In general the Snap push feels like making proprietary apps no

May I ask, purely out of curiosity, where do you see does Emacs need to be? From social, cultural, technical or any other point of view that you are thinking, and why so.

I wasn't aware. Is LSP support now in Emacs master/feature branch? I thought we needed lsp-mode/eglot extensions for it.

I agree with some of your points and have to disagree with others. > Things like org-mode and gnus are a distraction: emacs core should focus on programming modes Emacs can and has been doing both of these for a long time. Emacs is unlik

My earliest exposure for Python was from Linux distros. Originally Perl was used for stringing together a Linux distribution, but then Python took over the role, slowly. Batteries included stdlib helped a lot there, and also because there w

Doomscroll usually isn't an issue. Tree Style Tabs collapses a tree you're not in by default. So by default you only see the top level tabs, and your current branch is expanded. If your screen is 1080p or higher, you can easily se

Those big-ass different looking applications on desktop you mention are creator's tools. It makes sense they differentiate (specialize) their UX to deliver maximum utility, especially important to carry it over a decade or more of OS d
