@grahamc:nixos.org@grahamc:nixos.org abathur: I really like what you wrote on HN, it says a lot of things I've felt too but didn't really know how to say 18:39:00
@grahamc:nixos.org@grahamc:nixos.orgalso hard for me to summarize18:39:33
@abathur:matrix.orgabathurtbf I wrote a novella about it there :D18:39:57
@abathur:matrix.orgabathurthe only real TL;DR is that there's just a ton of friction everywhere in every direction--but I don't think that summary would convince anyone who hasn't tilted at the windmill yet18:40:58
@grahamc:nixos.org@grahamc:nixos.orgright18:56:58

@matthewkenigsberg:matrix.orgMatthew Kenigsberg abathur: discussing https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/7827, and it seems pretty unlikely it will ever get merged, but wondering if it would be better for you to respond and say something to that effect rather than just letting the PR hang? 15:13:16
@abathur:matrix.orgabathur grahamc (he/him): I guess this might be one of those command errors: https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/nix-installer/issues/285 15:47:26

@abathur:matrix.orgabathur

I'm a little exasperated that current install issues have been dangling as long as they are.

We may need a procedure for triangulating between 6nweek releases and letting versions with known install problems dangle for days on end spoiling first encounters.

@abathur:matrix.orgabathur* I'm a little exasperated that current install issues have been dangling as long as they are. We may need a procedure for triangulating between 6 week releases and letting versions with known install problems dangle for days on end spoiling first encounters.00:57:43
@abathur:matrix.orgabathurthese are good for a catch-up on what I'm referring to: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/7937 https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/799002:35:43

@hoverbear:matrix.orgAnaHi folks! I gather from my colleagues that we didn't manage to put together a meeting today? Sorry about that. I totally blanked that it was Wednesday and I believe Graham is out today. Did anyone have any topics we should cover? If so we can schedule something, otherwise we can reconvene next time.15:34:48
@theophane:hufschmitt.net@theophane:hufschmitt.netSo that's why I couldn't get in 😄 I was curious to know what the plans for the group were now that your installer is out. I'm still stuck at “let's wait for harmony to be released and then think again”16:29:49
@hoverbear:matrix.orgAnaI'm not sure we've decided!18:20:42
