@mic92:nixos.devMic92 * I think this one was quite needed: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/574716:47:45
@andi:kack.itandi-Yeah but Eelco will either comment that it isn't needed in the new CLI (which is experimental...) or that it doesn't cover enough cases or just merge it in a few weeks without a single comment.16:48:20
@mic92:nixos.devMic92I also found contributing to nix a bit frustrating, which is why I focused more on building tools around it.16:48:24
@andi:kack.itandi-I rather send messages to the LKML than contribute to Nix. The experience is a ton better.16:48:46
@andi:kack.itandi-The problem is just that the nix upgrades are kind of forced upon us at some point.16:49:07
@mic92:nixos.devMic92It's a bit hit and miss on LKML as well.16:49:15
@andi:kack.itandi-Oh yeah but at least there is someone to talk to and someone replies.16:49:28
@mic92:nixos.devMic92My qemu patch was also ignored completyly16:49:30
@mic92:nixos.devMic92 * My qemu patch was also ignored completely16:49:44
@mic92:nixos.devMic92And having to read all emails in a thread in order to find out what the merge state of a patch is, is also exhausting.16:50:53
@andi:kack.itandi-There are some projects that just suck regardless of platform. I had a terrible experience trying to contribute to GRUB. Only after I pinged a co-worker of one of the maintainers on IRC I received feedback.16:50:54
@mic92:nixos.devMic92Any idea why patchwork does not show my patch here? https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/qemu-devel/list/?series=&submitter=200979&state=&q=&archive=&delegate=16:52:55
@mic92:nixos.devMic92subject: hw/i386: fix phys-bits on cpus with AMD SEV/SMD16:53:09
@andi:kack.itandi-https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/qemu-devel/list/?series=&submitter=200979&state=*&q=&archive=both&delegate=16:54:28
@mic92:nixos.devMic92If I wanted to respond to this email, since I deleted the original. How would I do that?16:55:58
@andi:kack.itandi- In-Reply-To: <0b3132692ee53e98082b4dd12e41b4a3@thalheim.io> 16:56:32
@andi:kack.itandi-Add that mail header16:56:37
@andi:kack.itandi-Also: https://lore.kernel.org/all/0b3132692ee53e98082b4dd12e41b4a3@thalheim.io/#R16:57:15
@andi:kack.itandi- You could do that via git send-email 16:57:24
@andi:kack.itandi- could you don't have to. 16:57:39
@andi:kack.itandi-thunderbird might also just support that mailto: link at on that page16:58:42
@mic92:nixos.devMic92Seemed to work even in rainloop webmail :)17:01:13
@mic92:nixos.devMic92I just don't have the @redhat or @linaro address to draw attention17:01:43
@mic92:nixos.devMic92 * I just don't have a @redhat or @linaro address to draw attention17:01:51
@andi:kack.itandi-It is the same game as with business email. Try to get it into their inboxes ~10min before start of the business day in their timezone, just after the lunch break, ...17:03:32
@lourkeur:nixos.devlourkeur (nix btw)

@andi:kack.itandi-I'll take the server down for a scheduled reboot later today (probably around 18:00-20:00 UTC). It should be a brief moment but if things go south you know why :)07:28:15
