 raitobezarius | It needs to be stored somewhere? | 15:34:16 |
 benoitdr | In reply to @raitobezarius:matrix.org
Well whether you upload it to the Nix store or to some random platform, what does that change? the one who is paying for the storage ;-) There is no free lunch ... | 15:34:54 |
| raitobezarius | Again, we are not talking about cache.nixos.org, are we? | 15:35:28 |
| raitobezarius | Like even if you have pointers inside your remote storage, that does not change a lot that you are going to store a large buffer at some point somewhere, either in memory or on disk | 15:35:53 |

Again, we are not talking about cache.nixos.org, are we? that's what I understood what maybe I got it wrong | 15:36:08 |
| raitobezarius | "The Nix store" is not cache.nixos.org, right? | 15:36:32 |

| raitobezarius | Everyone who is using Nix has "the Nix store", in their local filesystem, it is in /nix/store | 15:36:46 |
| raitobezarius | But yes, storing datasets in cache.nixos.org is mostly out of the question, at the moment, for the cost reasons you mentioned | 15:37:12 |
| raitobezarius | Storing datasets in your own Nix store seems an interesting question to me though | 15:37:20 |
| raitobezarius | Compared to… store it locally on-disk, mount it from a remote location and buffer it, etc. | 15:37:44 |
| benoitdr | fully agree on that ... trexd , Can you clarify your request ? | 15:38:27 |

fully agree on that ... trexd , Can you clarify your request ? I just meant /nix/store locally. | 15:48:04 |
| benoitdr | OK sorry for confusion, personally I'll stick to a local minio server to store and share datasets locally. I tend to prefer a clear separation between code and data ;-) | 15:51:11 |
| benoitdr | I have built a docker image of an application that requires nvidia/cuda using dockerTools.buildImage. The image runs fine with nvidia-docker -run .... however, when I start a container from the same image via docker-compose, I have the following error :
Error response from daemon: failed to create task for container: failed to create shim task: OCI runtime create failed: runc create failed: unable to start container process: error during container init: error running hook #0: error running hook: exit status 1, stdout: , stderr: nvidia-container-cli: ldcache error: process /nix/store/cx01qk0qyylvkgisbwc7d3pk8sliccgh-glibc-2.38-27-bin/bin/ldconfig failed with error code: 1: unknown
I have added the few lines that are usually required to run nvidia/cuda images with docker-compose :
deploy:
resources:
reservations:
devices:
- driver: nvidia
device_ids: ['0']
capabilities: [gpu]
Note that other images (from docker hub) that require nvidia/cuda are working fine with these few lines.
Any idea what could go wrong ?

| user_5739 | Hello All 👋
New to NixOS here but I need to be able to run a virtual env manager like miniconda. Anybody has any successes in this regard? | 12:56:13 |
| benoitdr | I think nix-shell is what you are looking for. Personally I completely gave up conda, venv and pip since I discovered nix ;-) | 13:26:59 |

Hello All 👋
New to NixOS here but I need to be able to run a virtual env manager like miniconda. Anybody has any successes in this regard? I also use nixpkgs python3Packages as my main python distribution, but if you need conda then nix-ld + micromamba work fine | 11:42:01 |
