 ash | no it doesn't. flakes can come back when it's ready. | 03:08:20 |

no it doesn't. flakes can come back when it's ready. Make a distionction | 03:08:32 |

no it doesn't. flakes can come back when it's ready. * Make a distinction | 03:08:39 |
| David Arnold | ... where it's approriate. | 03:08:45 |
| David Arnold | flake vs nix 3.0 | 03:08:50 |
| David Arnold | or nix flake | 03:08:56 |
| David Arnold | vs flake.nix | 03:09:00 |
| ash | flakes should never have been introduced to nix unstable in the first place | 03:09:22 |
| David Arnold | I hear you point as such: nix flake go away so we can release nix | 03:09:29 |
| ash | they should've been developed separately | 03:09:30 |
| David Arnold | What are flakes? | 03:10:36 |
| David Arnold | * What are flakes? | 03:11:33 |
| ash | the thing i'm seeing with this document is a lot of discussion that would be welcome in an rfc | 03:13:02 |
| David Arnold | In reply to @kity:kity.wtf
they should've been developed separately A plugin system for nix would be nice. | 03:13:04 |
| ash | but this isn't an rfc | 03:13:09 |
| ash | it's a discussion about what to do right now | 03:13:17 |
| ash | which doesn't mean "rethinking flakes" or changing the implementation | 03:13:29 |

it's a discussion about what to do right now I would be suffering if they where removed omorrow) | 03:14:10 |

A plugin system for nix would be nice. nobody needs a plugin system. flakes can be implemented in pure nix at least as a proof of concept, and it would've been easier to hack on the implementation then | 03:14:14 |

I would be suffering if they where removed tomorrow sorry you rely so much on an unstable hotly contested feature that should've never been implemented in the first place. | 03:15:07 |
| ash | :/ | 03:15:11 |
| David Arnold | :/ | 03:15:20 |
| David Arnold | You see the problem 😄 | 03:15:35 |
| ash | i see the problem is people started relying on an unstable feature and now view it as vital to the ecosystem | 03:16:19 |
| David Arnold | So what can we do right now? | 03:16:27 |
| ash | what the hell does "unstable" mean | 03:16:29 |
