| mei 🌒& | i also do that :P | 13:31:51 |
 JoelMcCracken | oh yeah | 13:41:40 |
| JoelMcCracken | i'm a big printf debug | 13:41:45 |
| mei 🌒& | i'm really not sure what to do with emacs' modality where it occasionally crosses the line of self-modifying executable, but Not Usually | 13:41:49 |
| JoelMcCracken | for a number of years i was a Debuggers Are The One True Way person | 13:42:27 |
| mei 🌒& | like i test new things on one of my machines and use the other one as a 'prod' workstation usually, for work and other things that don't want to wait for the latest changes to be flushed out | 13:42:31 |
| JoelMcCracken | and, if there is one that is easy to use, I do use it | 13:42:54 |
| JoelMcCracken | I need to start doing this too | 13:43:37 |
| mei 🌒& | let's not use threads i've heard they're very broken | 13:44:00 |
| JoelMcCracken | ok | 13:44:05 |

'prod' workstation

'prod' workstation
yeah i need to start doing this
| 13:44:37 |
| mei 🌒& | the thing is currently NDE nearly forces you to wait for the whole damn rebuild cycle | 13:45:02 |
| JoelMcCracken | for what i had been doing before as I've been trying to make all these packages work, it involved basically re-running home manager over and over | 13:45:44 |
| mei 🌒& | doom doesn't encourage this and nix does but there's a big Mess to resolve when we make them touch | 13:45:49 |
| JoelMcCracken | yeah | 13:45:57 |
| mei 🌒& | In reply to @JoelMcCracken:matrix.org
for what i had been doing before as I've been trying to make all these packages work, it involved basically re-running home manager over and over yeah for me this takes a while because my evals are quite big | 13:48:48 |
| mei 🌒& | so i usually eval at point in my org config | 13:49:10 |
| JoelMcCracken | one thing about working on nde directly now is that I can run the check thing to see how its working | 13:49:22 |
| mei 🌒& | a friend who wasn't on Nix yet at the time could just M-x package-install and that was like. wow | 13:51:06 |
| mei 🌒& | like i went "oh you should get $X" and they just ran a few things in emacs and got the package | 13:51:23 |
| mei 🌒& | even with vanilla doom that'd be what, a doom sync and restart | 13:51:53 |
| JoelMcCracken | weljl you can i think run M-x doom sync | 13:53:13 |
| mei 🌒& | there's hints of a mainframe ideology in there though; what happens with a few emacsen on different machines | 13:53:20 |
| mei 🌒& | * there's hints of a mainframe ideology in there though; what happens with a few emacsen on different machines? | 13:53:23 |
| JoelMcCracken | sure | 13:54:02 |
| mei 🌒& | * there's hints of a mainframe ideology in there though; what happens with a few emacsen on different machines? | 13:54:29 |
| mei 🌒& | if we had a imperative2nix that'd be really neat | 13:54:50 |
| JoelMcCracken | for sure | 13:54:58 |
