@asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.ukasymmetric does anyone else think we should remove the "natural deduction" proof from the nixpkgs manual? 11:50:10
@asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.ukasymmetrici don't think it really belongs to the main body of a technical manual11:50:31
@asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.ukasymmetricit would be good as an appendix, perhaps11:50:37

@b:chreekat.netchreekatAgreed. I've always struggled with that whole section12:37:24
@asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.ukasymmetricYeah it’s like to rewrite it13:16:01
@asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.ukasymmetric* Yeah I’d like to rewrite it13:16:10
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn What section is this? 13:16:59
@b:chreekat.netchreekatThe one linked right above, https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/unstable/#ssec-stdenv-dependencies15:17:09
@jonringer:matrix.orgjonringer

I was thinking of adding subsections to the release notes, how do people feel about:

  • Backward Incompatibilities
    • Changes
    • Deprecations
    • Removals
      ...
19:23:30
@winterqt:nixos.devWinter (she/her)What would be the line between changes and removals? Like, would an option’s type or semantics changing be considered a change?19:31:32
