 fzakaria | I posted that I like git's model of allowing subcommands so people can create their own.
It lets you have very ergonomic naming commands | 17:54:42 |
| fzakaria | (git searches for any tool on $PATH that is prefixd with git-) | 17:54:50 |
| fzakaria | something like:
nix verify-reproducible <PACKAGE> [--repeat 0] sounds a lot better | 17:55:15 |
| fzakaria | When it does repeat, losing all the previous attempts was frustrating; but i'm being nitpicky | 17:56:18 |
| fzakaria | --check was pretty good | 17:56:23 |

It should be easier for people to check reproducibility of their own packages as well Debian's gitlab (salsa) CI has a default reprotest job. something like that would be nice. | 18:38:10 |

| siraben (he/him) | Does the reproducibility patches lead to slower binary performance? | 11:23:48 |
 Rick (Mindavi) | Some do, like the python patches that disable optimized builds and disabling gcc profile guided optimization | 11:49:27 |
| Rick (Mindavi) | I think there are some wins to be had with making those reproducible as well, but that's quite involved | 11:50:01 |
| Rick (Mindavi) | And requires intricate knowledge of the code and tooling, so that requires effort upstream | 11:50:54 |
| Rick (Mindavi) | Which leads to some discussion since PGO does help quite a bit | 11:59:44 |
 davidak | >The NixOS Linux distribution pulled off a technical and publicity coup this month by announcing that the ISO_minimal.x86_64-Linux image is 100% reproducible. The announcement was widely discussed on Hacker News, where the article has received in excess of 200 comments.

 andi- | Is it just me or is that worded a bit odd? | 17:49:27 |
 chreekat | It's unnatural English, if that's what you mean. :) Maybe not written by a native speaker? | 17:50:59 |
| andi- | The publicity coup is what sound a bit negative to me. | 17:51:26 |
| Rick (Mindavi) | It's good that we're on the list :) | 17:57:49 |

 tomberek | The wording does sound a bit odd. I’m not sure what kind of relationship there is between the org and Nix community. | 18:16:25 |

The wording does sound a bit odd. I’m not sure what kind of relationship there is between the org and Nix community. I first heard about this when grahamc announced it on #reproducible-builds on oftc. | 18:30:55 |
 Foxboron | I think lamby wrote it because raboof didn't get time? It's well intentioned I assure you :) | 18:31:21 |
| tomberek | Who runs the infra for r13y? I’d love to start expanding the package sets reported. It provides a nice way to focus community efforts. | 19:22:21 |
| tomberek | Answering my own question: looks like it’s grahamc. https://github.com/grahamc/r13y.com | 19:24:13 |
