 Pol | In reply to @raboof:matrix.org
awesome news: I successfully reproduced the minimal ISO for the first time, achieving a bit-by-bit identical artifact to the one produced by Hydra 🎉. how long it took for the build ? | 11:46:02 |
 raboof | Oh, I don't know, I trigger it and then go do other things - around 4 hours perhaps? There are two expensive steps: building the newer nix (as it also builds a lot of prerequisites) and building the ISO the first time. | 11:52:11 |

| raitobezarius | If I read this well, it's pretty impressive | 12:10:03 |
| raitobezarius | I wonder if we would get similar results given our codebase ~similar | 12:10:13 |
| raitobezarius | * I wonder if we would get similar results given our codebase are ~similar | 12:10:16 |
 Julien | I'm positively impressed that they have the infrastructure to produce these results | 12:10:47 |
| raitobezarius | well they are using the French clusters | 12:12:17 |
| raitobezarius | the Bordeaux one and tobias.gr's one | 12:12:45 |
| raitobezarius | We could get started doing something similar | 12:13:00 |
| raitobezarius | But heh | 12:13:04 |
| Julien | I'd be very interested in that | 12:13:10 |
| raitobezarius | Let me grab you what I told raboof in DM | 12:13:21 |
| Julien | But currently we just don't have the hardware for that I think | 12:13:31 |
| raitobezarius | what do you mean the hardware | 12:14:07 |
| raitobezarius | we need no hardware to do this | 12:14:10 |
| raitobezarius |
and I'll definitely keep looking out for that 'simplest thing that can possibly work' for hash collection 😆. maybe I should just sit down and write a super boring database service and be done with it, but that's never how it goes, is it? 😆
raitobezarius
Maybe pgsql
Static schema
raboof
yeah exactly
raitobezarius
Add community folks with ssh key or IP or whatever
And post hook build script that uploads results
Directly with psqo
Psql *
And apply just some stupid RLS to prevent basic tampering
I can hack this weekend
If you come up with the schema
More generally, I have been meaning to have a NixOS community LDAP

| Julien | We need to build a second time what Hydra is already struggling to build ? | 12:14:39 |
| raitobezarius | we need no second hydra | 12:14:51 |
