| Sandro 🐧 | That's just a list I have somewhere above in a let in | 08:50:56 |
|  aciceri changed their display name from zrsk to aciceri. | 15:02:57 |
 Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | Curiously, Boehm granule size on 64 bit systems is 16 bytes. That means that 16 byte atomics for Value are very workable, since x86_64 needs stuff to be 16 bytes aligned (otherwise memory might straddle the cache line and that won’t be atomic ever) | 17:31:17 |

|  SomeoneSerge (back on matrix) changed their display name from SomeoneSerge (@nixcon & back on matrix) to SomeoneSerge (back on matrix). | 00:34:03 |

|  matthewcroughan @fosdem changed their display name from matthewcroughan @ nixcon to matthewcroughan. | 14:56:12 |

| getchoo | hey Mic92: just came across your comment on the detnix installer thread. i'm not super familiar with the codebase just yet, but i have a good bit of experience with gha and ci janitor work, and would love to help out if i can! :) | 00:16:11 |
| Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | Here are some notes from our meeting with the installer team. I forgor to publish them to discourse https://pad.lassul.us/KgpbqiQpQEOX2cKF5Ehjwg# | 00:24:04 |
| Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | Very incomplete and half-way | 00:24:49 |
| Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | But basically it'd be great to start integrating it into our dogfooding setup https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/master/.github/actions/install-nix-action/action.yaml | 00:25:28 |
| Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | PoC for 16 byte atomics on x86_64 for paralell eval: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/13964. Lovers of compiler intrinsics are welcome | 01:07:35 |
|  @jordanjoel1:matrix.org changed their profile picture. | 03:27:09 |

| getchoo | thanks for the link! i'll take a closer look at some of the stuff mentioned and what's already there this weekend hopefully (new job has had me a bit busy, catching covid from it didn't help either 😆), but i definitely think i can get this dogfooding setup going. i already have a bit of experience with very similar things in other action projects | 05:01:36 |
