 ash | it doesn't get anything done, it just proposes more options | 03:18:44 |
| ash | and what we need is not more options | 03:18:49 |
| ash | we need to make something happen | 03:18:55 |

we need to make something happen Can you code C++? | 03:19:27 |
| David Arnold | I can't, and the URF is certainly not bikeshedding. | 03:19:54 |
| ash | no, and last time i tried hacking on nix it didn't work out | 03:20:02 |
| ash | i'm not gonna be the one to remove it from nix | 03:20:13 |
| ash | but we can do better than more rfc talk | 03:20:25 |
| David Arnold | CitdelCore seems to transact upon it. | 03:20:51 |
| David Arnold | That's a good sing, after only 3 days | 03:20:57 |
| ash | what is citadelcore | 03:21:06 |
| David Arnold | Who! | 03:21:11 |

There is already some work consolidating around the input stuff here: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/4641 This PR and discussion | 03:21:43 |
| ash | who is citadelcore | 03:21:43 |
| David Arnold | I think we need to fix flake input semantics, first. and completely get rid of output contracts. | 03:22:22 |
| David Arnold | (the way they are today) | 03:22:30 |
| David Arnold | Getting rid of output contracts also get's rid of the cli tooling consumer of it. | 03:22:42 |
| David Arnold | ... gets rid of nix flake in good part | 03:22:51 |
| David Arnold | * ... gets rid of nix flake in some part | 03:23:11 |
| ash | and is that supposed to be a step towards fixing flakes or removing them? | 03:23:24 |
| ash | because i don't care about fixing them | 03:23:29 |
| David Arnold | In reply to @kity:kity.wtf
because i don't care about fixing them You said that already. | 03:23:40 |
| David Arnold | BUt it's not very prone to consensus, I guess. | 03:23:51 |
| David Arnold | * But it's not very prone to consensus, I guess. | 03:23:58 |
| David Arnold | In reply to @kity:kity.wtf
and is that supposed to be a step towards fixing flakes or removing them? fixing inputs. removing output contracts. | 03:24:26 |
| ash | what consensus? nobody agrees on what flakes should be, there was no consensus for letting them into nix in the first place | 03:24:39 |
| ash | and now everyone is relying on them | 03:24:45 |
| ash | i don't know or care what input or output contracts are :/ | 03:25:04 |
| David Arnold | thats indeed very intricate policits of playing consensus | 03:25:15 |
| David Arnold | In reply to @kity:kity.wtf
i don't know or care what input or output contracts are :/ only output contracts | 03:25:30 |
