@jonringer:matrix.orgjonringer

What would be the line between changes and removals?

Change:

- `services.thelounge.private` was removed in favor of `services.thelounge.public`, to follow with upstream changes.

Removal:

- The MoinMoin wiki engine (`services.moinmoin`) has been removed, because Python 2 is being retired from nixpkgs.

@winterqt:nixos.devWinter (she/her)Ah you mean like that, got it.19:54:25
@winterqt:nixos.devWinter (she/her)As long as we explicitly define what should go where then I definitely agree with this change :)19:54:52
@jonringer:matrix.orgjonringer So, the headers allow for us to drop a bunch of "The options <foo> <bar> ..." "The package pkgs.<pkgname>" prose 19:57:24

@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 🏳️‍🌈would appreciate any fresh eyes to look through it and see if I got anything wrong :)22:57:45
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 🏳️‍🌈mainly regarding function signatures and such22:57:57
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 🏳️‍🌈I can probably also export a HTML version if that's preferred22:58:39
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 🏳️‍🌈yeah... readability of that kinda sucks, lol22:59:17

@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarfor flip, you mention two argument functions but there is technically no such thing23:39:50
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarmaybe introduce currying?23:40:11
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar perhaps you want to add arguments to partition, callBy, … predicates to make it obvious they are functions 23:48:03
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar * perhaps you want to add arguments to partition, groupBy, … predicates to make it obvious they are functions 23:48:21
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar you might also want to mention the full <set>.<attr> or <fallback> syntax 23:51:49
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarstring concatenation has wrong operator23:59:03

I'm forgoing technical correctness in favour of accessibility, deliberately :)
