Here is a decent example of a docker image being created from nixPkgs https://github.com/input-output-hk/plutus#how-to-run-a-local... Another advantage is a unified development environment as I can run the server in th

Ha! I did this but the containers end up being somewhat large since you have all the NixOS package stuff in the container too. However, building the container from a configuration.nix file gives you exactly what you need in the container an

Dockerfiles are imperative and the order of steps changes the container image that ultimately gets built. Nix packages are declarative and idempotent. Everything is based on a functional package manager and when you configure your container

Haven’t actually deployed to k8s, currently using them to isolate local development but there I know (at least at one point) kubernetes supported other images than just docker images but even if they do t NixOS containers supports generatin

People seems to forget how many people program in JavaScript. Just because the average is low doesn’t mean there aren’t just as many really good ones out there as any other language. It might be common to have lots of dependencies but I can

One thing people forget is containers don’t necessarily not to be created with Docker. Lately I’ve been creating containers using NixOS and couldn’t be more happy with the ability to have everything in the container configured by a configu

Having used Kubernetes extensively at my last position, adoption of k8s strikes me as similar to the adoption of Linux as your desktop OS at the Turn of the century. Some people are doing amazing things with it! Other never figure out how t

Provided the article wasn’t exactly clear and I have no way of knowing exactly what the author meant; I think things like civil unrest can be thought of as a “crack”, the US 1st amendment almost encourages small cracks and they quickly get

It’s a subtle difference but it’s the difference between how something is computed vs what is computed (i.e. the processes in place to enforce a law vs the word of the law). I’m definitely not a legal scholar but I optimize code a fair amou

Could an executive order be made to make the approval process more effective and efficient? We did the fist part of the work by identifying the bottle necks (at least broadly), the Acts where approved by Congress so now let’s optimize. It s

One of the best things to come out of protocol labs is https://multiformats.io/ Really simple mechanisms for things like identifying the hash algorithm and gives you a programmatic way of supporting new hash algorithms with

It seems there is a a lot of back and forth on this thread about AWS good/bad. On the one side, people seem offended people use AWS at all Which common it serves a need and generally does what it’s supposed to. On the other side it’s l

Maybe there is a better word than “Nuke” to describe this? Perhaps a word not so strongly associated with death and destruction, unless you truly mean the physical locations of these orgs should be hit with atomic weapons?

maybe not right away but eventually people would catch on. Regardless, it’s pretty certain Huawei does it and the possibility someone else is doing it and currently getting away with it does not justify someone else doing it.

It’s unlikely humans will wipe themselves off the face of the planet without taking most species with them. Cockroaches are a likely exception.

> He asked me why 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 = 1, since it's equal to 0.333... + 0.333... + 0.333... which is 0.999... How can that possibly equal 1.000...? And is 0.66... equal to 0.67000...? This would make me very proud.

Had an Ubuntu touch phone. It was ok as a GuI for an OS but the lamest thing was they locked down the package manager so u could only install stuff from their App Store with like nothing in or you escalated privileges and any customization

It’s really great that functional package managers are getting all this attention! Nix package manager can run on Arch and Gentoo and OpenSUSE also.

I recently switched to NixOS and have essentially configured my OS from scratch in less than a week and now use it as my main system. The thing to remember about NixOS is it’s not a distribution of KDE or Gnome or manager of anything, it’s

Yes and no. Yes; lots of startups fail and now just fail sooner. No; many who would have otherwise found a foothold now have to re-examine their path forward. The startup I worked for until last Thursday is going through this. Despite most
