Also new to nixos but the first few hours was a breeze: installed x and i3, commented out, installed waylaid and sway, realised that my configs aren’t ready to switch yet (mainly custom xmodmap) so commented that back out, and i3 back in. I

I've been told that in the army (UK) its illegal to park forwards. They had so many accidents that they banned it. But yea, definitely easier to squeeze into tighter spots going backwards, and not that much harder after you've don

Haha those were the days. Accidentally (on purpose) sent a message to entire domain in college, IT teachers immediately looked to us trouble makers :D

I do see both of your points of view. There are some good answers on SO that capture both. They first explain why it’s infeasible, talk about a better approach, then lastly give pointers on how to achieve what is asked regardless using thei

It was mentioned, the striving for the best bit, but may have been me reading in between the lines. The little bits in the article really resonate with me, in particular what I spot in my field (software dev / distributed systems) is t

Neat! I’m definitely looking for something like this. My use case is running semi-trusted dev tools that come packaged. I need to run them, but I don’t want to trust them, but it’s too much of a faff to actually check, or run them in isolat
