 raitobezarius | but i hate being responsible for these ones :'( | 19:48:20 |
| raitobezarius | but i should probably touch flakes code to execute on out of core extraction | 19:48:37 |
| raitobezarius | https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/520 | 19:54:21 |
 aloisw | https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/841 is the one I had in mind. | 19:54:23 |
| aloisw | Contrary to the comment that caused me to get pinged on it, I do not think it was me who broke it. | 19:54:46 |
| raitobezarius | yeah, nw | 19:55:09 |
| raitobezarius | I think the 2.94.0 train will depart soon | 19:55:19 |
| raitobezarius | I do not have it in me to fix this sort of stuff last minute | 19:55:25 |
 hexa | choo chooooo | 19:57:20 |
| raitobezarius | 🚄 | 19:57:40 |
 Michaili K | oh its already known, okay ty! i went with replacing the ?refs | 20:38:56 |
| raitobezarius | sorry for that ^^' | 20:39:07 |
| Michaili K | * oh its already known, okay ty! i went with replacing the ?refs so im all good now | 20:39:09 |
| raitobezarius | This might be fixed in an upcoming patch release of 2.93 or 2.94 | 20:39:16 |
| Michaili K | im all good! found out quickly after my initial message that it was caused by the ?refs | 20:44:09 |
| Michaili K | wanted to be sure it was a known issue too... but i didnt htink of... checking the issue tracker... xd | 20:44:44 |
| Michaili K | im not well versed in C/C++ so i couldnt really help fixing it. i could try bisecting though | 20:47:12 |
| raitobezarius | i already know what caused it, don't worry | 21:24:34 |

|  suya changed their profile picture. | 11:16:28 |
 Emma [it/its] | i wonder if its possible to build less of lix | 14:34:04 |
| Emma [it/its] | ie. ommitting nix-channel etc | 14:34:36 |
| aloisw | Such a possibility does not exist right now. I'm also afraid it wouldn't help much, as nix-channel is not that large and mostly works by calling other stuff that has to be there anyway. | 14:48:16 |
|  flax changed their display name from Jean to flax. | 15:31:38 |
 Katie | Hello. I have a question about prior art in Nix language RFCs/pre-RFCs of if anyone had anyone had ever proposed something along the lines of Regex Literals?
Considering that the Lix project is interested in evolving the language12, I figured this might be a good place to ask?
(Wasn't sure if this moreso belonged here or in Development)

 K900 | Was never proposed AFAIK and also Nix regex semantics are wildly underspecified | 18:31:29 |
| K900 | @aloisw has horror stories if you want | 18:31:34 |
| aloisw | The "horror stories" I found are mostly about finding a library that actually works. | 18:34:24 |
| aloisw | Yes, such a library exists (TRE with proper configuration), but never got around to rejecting its extensions. | 18:35:00 |
| aloisw | Regex literals are also something that looks more related to URL literals than to regex implementations, and maybe it suffices to say that the former were thrown out some time ago. | 18:35:47 |
