 liberodark | I can help on risc-v | 17:06:09 |
 Mic92 | In reply to @hexa:lossy.network
plus taxes depending on where the legal entitity for nix-community resides Suiss | 17:06:10 |
| liberodark | * I can help on risc-v too | 17:06:12 |
| Mic92 | Best VAT | 17:06:17 |
| hexa | Süß 😄 | 17:06:20 |
| Mic92 | We should also vat optimise the NixOS infra :) only issue is that doing taxes in Swiss probably makes overhead not worth it | 17:08:40 |
| liberodark | What you need in spec ? | 17:13:46 |
 K900 | More than realistically exists currently | 17:14:12 |
| K900 | With all due respect we should not be spending time on RISCV right now | 17:14:47 |
| K900 | We have much bigger fish to fry and RISCV hardware is, frankly, a meme | 17:15:25 |
 emily | right, ouch. (but I guess at least it also increases what would be saved on the x86) | 17:16:48 |
| liberodark | The x86_64 builder will be ready in about 1 week.
For risc-v we would need more information, I have a few servers but for a builder it seems to me that we need a pioneer which is quite slow as standard.
But it's what works best at the moment. | 17:20:14 |
| emily | I think we probably don't have the sources as a community to give RISC-V higher tier support right now | 17:20:48 |
| emily | IIRC it was unclear whether any available RISC-V hardware could keep up with Hydra load and not drag down the other architectures right now | 17:21:09 |
| emily | and Hydra would definitely need multiple of the best RISC-V machines money can buy at the minimum | 17:21:44 |
| hexa | I'm totally paying for taxes as needed, given that the foundation basically uses the dutch state as a vehicle | 17:22:02 |
| hexa | * I'm totally pro paying for taxes as needed, given that the foundation basically uses the dutch state as a vehicle | 17:22:08 |
| hexa | and I have strong opinions on the implications of an 8% tax rate | 17:22:21 |
| hexa | liberodark: I generally trust K900's judgement on RISC-V, but at the same time it would be good to gauge performance. | 17:23:28 |
| liberodark | I allow myself a question if you want.
- ofborg is a rebot that helps to verify commits?
- nixos-community builder helps to build on the fly?
- hydra allows to check a specific state when a release is released?
| 17:24:21 |
| liberodark | I will give you access to a pioneer. | 17:25:13 |
| emily | Hydra builds everything users use, on both the stable and unstable branches | 17:25:18 |
| emily | the community builders are used by contributors to test builds | 17:25:29 |
| liberodark | * I will give you access to a pioneer. So that you can test it on your side. | 17:25:36 |
| emily | (while reviewing code or developing it themselves) | 17:25:38 |
| emily | ofborg temporarily doesn't exist, but usually provides automated builds across all platforms for pull requests before they're merged | 17:25:56 |
| liberodark | * I allow myself a question if you want.

| 17:26:00 |
| emily | community builders and ofborg have some overlap in use case, Hydra is the most critical thing | 17:26:09 |
