 Jonas Chevalier | emily: Personally I'd be interested in knowing how much bandwidth my personal infra, and Numtide are using. I would be interesting to me. I'm wondering if other people would like to have this facility too. | 13:57:20 |
| Jonas Chevalier | It could also be useful to know which org to approach and ask if they would be willing to install loca caches / reverse proxies to reduce the load. | 13:59:29 |
 vcunat | I'd expect the last bit to be covered by Fastly, but who knows. | 14:15:12 |
| Jonas Chevalier | We can already identify orgs with public IP ranges / AS as those appror in the fastly logs. | 14:31:00 |

most organizations with that kind of need are probably using their own caching proxy if they're using the central cache at all, surely? AFAIK, the caches I know, such as Cachix and Attic, will not cache locally things that are available in the global cache. | 16:27:14 |
| Jonas Chevalier | I'm expecting GitHub Action runners to use most of the traffic | 16:37:14 |

AFAIK, the caches I know, such as Cachix and Attic, will not cache locally things that are available in the global cache. For attic: you can disable the upload filter and then it's only a question of having the priorities configured correctly to primarily use your cache. | 16:48:50 |

| K900 | Yeah definitely stuck | 07:57:41 |

 dgrig | What's the proper procedure for me to request I get write access to Grafana so I can upload a dashboard for the tracker.security.nixos.org service? The dashboard in question is https://github.com/Nix-Security-WG/nix-security-tracker/blob/main/contrib/grafana-dashboard.json if it's easier for someone else to import it. | 11:35:26 |

| shock-wave | Hi, I have been told that this chatroom is the right place to be with seek help with issues pertaining to the nixos discourse.
I have been trying to log in to my account but I havent saved/remembered the password. The last time I logged in was 3 months ago.
However when I try to recover my password or login with link sent to the email address, I dont receive anything.
I have also tried to make a new account with a new email address but I dont seem to receive emails to that either.
The account isnt banned(at least not overtly).
I was wondering if someone could help me with this issue or tell me what the issue is.
Thanks in advance. | 11:40:27 |
 Christian Theune | I can check if you DM me the email address you are using. (Room: let me know if I should verify this request further to avoid information leakage wrt potential social engineering.) | 11:54:37 |
| shock-wave | will do and understandable if you want a second opinion, I can also provide more info if needed. | 11:56:15 |

 Arian | So we were a bit puzzled during the call.
It seems that even without my changes to cache NARs more aggressively, currently 404s are not cached even though fastly by default caches 404s.
Or at leasts x-cache-hits response header is always 0 for 404s whilst for all other paths we do get hits.
i.e. if you fetch a non-existent narinfo we always get a x-cache-hits: 0 back
So it feels like something is misconfigured today?
Or is maybe the synthetic response object that we have resetting those headers?
https://github.com/NixOS/infra/blob/main/terraform/cache.tf#L233-L240
I wonder if we need to move from cache_condition to request_condition here or something?
| 16:59:18 |
| Arian | but yeh for me curl -v https://cache.nixos.org/non-existent.narinfo always reports a x-cache-hits: 0 which doesn't sound correct | 17:00:44 |
| Arian | Or does it? is that the desired behaviour? | 17:00:59 |
