 dish [Fox/It/She] | damn | 17:41:17 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | wasn't sure if you did know, since a lot of folks dont know about that flag ^^ sorry abt that | 17:41:34 |
 Cobalt | NP, when we tried FOD we also only found it very late | 17:46:09 |
| Cobalt | But regardless, if FOD is better for eval time then it might be worth a revisit | 17:46:29 |
| Cobalt | Thank you for the helpful and quick responses | 17:47:05 |

But regardless, if FOD is better for eval time then it might be worth a revisit yeah my thought is just that thousands of unique derivations, even if de-duped across packages, is still more derivations and memory usage even when unused, and therefore eval perf impact | 18:27:08 |

 Emma [it/its] | hm, is there a helper to trim down build artifacts in node_modules? | 18:26:55 |
| Emma [it/its] | trying to trim down the size of a node derivation and just deleting .o, .a etc files helps a lot | 18:29:05 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | nope afaik | 18:34:49 |
| Emma [it/its] | argh okay, guess ill be enumerating filetyes myself - is it possible to match multiple extensions with find? | 18:35:40 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | can specify the -name flag multiple times | 20:10:29 |
| Emma [it/its] | oh, TIL | 20:10:51 |
| Emma [it/its] | this appears not to work | 20:34:01 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | huh | 22:09:19 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | i got that from the manpahe | 22:09:27 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | * i got that from the manpage | 22:09:34 |
| Emma [it/its] | yeah idk, it kept not matching any files when i did that | 22:17:24 |
 samasaur | use fd ? much easier to specify extensions | 23:18:50 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | i mean, easier to use find when it's built-in so 🤷 | 23:47:49 |

| Cobalt | iirc, find -name '*.nix' -or -name '*.git' works (focus on the -or) | 01:11:43 |
| Cobalt | * iirc, find -name '*.nix' -or -name '*.git' works (focus on the -or, this should be usable for multiple -ors) | 01:13:09 |

 Tomodachi94 (they/them) | Branch-off just happened, should be good to undraft this | 22:29:49 |
| Tomodachi94 (they/them) | I think it would be awesome to completely get rid of nodePackages by 26.05 | 22:35:09 |
| Tomodachi94 (they/them) | Merge conflict, that's annoying | 22:37:33 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | will work on fixing that | 22:38:53 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | huh, git didnt need me to resolve any conflicts | 22:39:45 |
| Tomodachi94 (they/them) | I think for the remaining packages, we should ask upstream nicely for lockfiles and then drop if they say no, for reasons already established | 22:40:13 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | maybe mergiraf is just that good lik | 22:40:16 |
