 emily | but not keen to put more effort into that PR than I already have :) | 21:04:01 |
| emily | load limits are a bad solution in general, we actually want a proper jobserver protocol | 21:04:10 |
 Gaétan Lepage | A recent episode of the Full Time Nix podcast was about remote building. The guest started a company and his product seems to have a lot of very appealing features in this regard.
Unfortunately, it is closed source. | 21:04:10 |
| emily | which IIRC Rust implements the new Make version of or at least considered implementing | 21:04:21 |
| emily | but that's a bunch of work and this is one flag | 21:04:32 |
| Gaétan Lepage | Speaking about the builders, I created this room: https://matrix.to/#/#nix-community-builders:matrix.org
Indeed, I don't think that the Nix-community room should be use for mere user-coordination. It spams a lot and most people probably don't care. | 21:15:39 |
 Austin Horstman | i have tried so many different ways of limiting nix-daemon and builds and its just too painful and not effective... | 22:50:16 |
| Austin Horstman | I also would like to take advantage of all my remote builders in a different way than it works.. I want my local machine highest priority and only fallback to remote builders when needed based on usage / number of jobs etc | 22:51:04 |
| Austin Horstman | Right now I basically have to blacklist my build machines of the same platform/architecture so that I dont need to spin up a ssh connection for trivial stuff constantly | 22:51:57 |
 Grimmauld (any/all) | i'd also love my remote builders to optionally continue building while my main machine is disconnected from wifi. It is frustrating having a hours long build be cancled just because wifi cuts out | 22:52:38 |
| Austin Horstman | i tried getting clever and adding my host as a remote builder for itself since you can ssh into yourself, but the build would just hang indefinitely lol | 22:57:04 |
| Austin Horstman | * i tried getting clever and adding my host as a high priority remote builder for itself since you can ssh into yourself, but the build would just hang indefinitely lol | 22:57:14 |
| Austin Horstman | that would be nice... | 23:03:38 |
 Ihar Hrachyshka | btw is there a config example on how to set community builders with nix-daemon nix module to use ssh key from a user .ssh/ directory? I tried but looked like nix-daemon fails to ssh because of the key not read properly. | 23:05:17 |
| Ihar Hrachyshka | this is what I tried | 23:06:50 |
| Austin Horstman | Been a while since I've tried messing with it... I had issues with it and ended up just passing the key from a sops-nix secret | 23:10:41 |

 Ainz Ooal Gown | Running a few staging builds on the x64 linux build box for https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/390171
Hopefully won't put too much strain on it | 11:07:45 |
