 rosssmyth | You just can't in Nixpkgs | 22:38:34 |
 neobrain | rosssmyth: How do you handle day-to-day development? Do you enter a nix shell or do you always nix run/build? If it's purely the former, I'm guessing the main benefit of the caching is for CI? | 22:39:26 |

| rosssmyth | The packages that allow it are rust-overlay and the other one I can't remember

| rosssmyth | Generally both. The caching in CI is pretty much always a win, then caching when I'm just doing day-to-day dev is also great cause I always like to verify that things build alright in the sandbox when I'm developing | 22:41:26 |
