 raitobezarius | how many drvs in the dependency graph? | 23:36:15 |
| raitobezarius | building the NixOS system on a NixOS system or? | 23:36:24 |
| raitobezarius | aren't you affected by a form of https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/479442 ? | 23:36:53 |
| raitobezarius | also if you rebuild that .drv using --rebuild, are you reproducing that long delay? | 23:37:40 |

 Winter | I tried that, didn’t appear to but I’ll need to do more tests | 01:04:50 |
| Winter | perhaps? 👀 | 01:04:59 |
| Winter | yes (wait, would that matter vs. any other Linux?) | 01:05:11 |
| raitobezarius | other Linux systems may have weird LSM that slow down things | 01:05:28 |
| raitobezarius | or you may have an enterprise software EDR that slow down things | 01:05:35 |
| raitobezarius | * or you may have an enterprise software EDR/security that slow down things | 01:05:40 |
| Winter | gotcha (i don’t, to clarify( | 01:05:48 |
| Winter | * | 01:05:52 |
| Winter | * | 01:05:56 |
| raitobezarius | yeah, just trying to rule out foreign reasons | 01:05:58 |
| Winter | will collect some better timings tomorrow | 01:06:01 |
| Winter | thanks 🫡 | 01:06:05 |
| raitobezarius | np! | 01:06:09 |
|  dish [Fox/It/She] left the room. | 01:15:41 |
|  whispers [& it/fae] changed their display name from whispers (it/fae) to whispers [& it/fae]. | 02:51:41 |
 vczf | :doc lib.trivial.pipe produces no documentation in nix repl, but the other functions there work fine.
There’s what looks to me like properly written documentation in <nixpkgs>/lib/trivial.nix yet it doesn’t show up in repl.
This is the same for lix and cppnix latest. Anybody know if this is likely a bug in nix command implementation or rather in nixpkgs? | 05:55:01 |
 m | I've installed NixOS at some point last year influenced by someone I follow. Their installation included flakes. Since then, I've read so many things about flakes having been experimental for ages as well as controversial.
What's the general take within the Lix community? Would I just be better off? | 08:10:44 |
 K900 | It doesn't really matter | 08:11:15 |
| K900 | If flakes work for you, use flakes | 08:11:19 |
 Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | i want to switch off but I haven't found an integration guide to npins | 08:12:15 |
| m | In reply to @k900:0upti.me
If flakes work for you, use flakes It's more like the only thing I've used 😅 | 08:12:48 |
| K900 | Well is it causing you problems? | 08:13:05 |
 Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | the thing that made me switch off was that i found myself circumventing flakes more than i used them | 08:13:39 |
| Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | like importing default/package.nix instead of using flake attrs | 08:13:59 |
| m | nope | 08:14:15 |
| Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | well, for me, its more of an philosephical thing, I like the idea of flakes but not how they are implemented | 08:14:18 |
