 Bruno Rodrigues | and also suppose I fit a model, and would like to save this model | 16:31:35 |
| Bruno Rodrigues | with targets this model gets serialized and saved for later retrieval in an r session | 16:32:06 |
| Bruno Rodrigues | does nix/bionix serialize intermediary outputs ? | 16:32:46 |
 CRTified | I think jbedo could help a bit more for the bionix question, but for additional outputs, I'd actually check the outputs argument for mkDerivation | 16:33:08 |
| CRTified | The typical usecase are distinct outputs for libs, bin and so on, but I think it would fit that application nicely as well | 16:33:37 |
 jbedo | In reply to @brodriguesco:matrix.org
with targets this model gets serialized and saved for later retrieval in an r session there's no knowledge of bionix at the application level, for R i use the builtin serialisation like save() and writeRDS(), and as CRTified said multiple outputs are handy for dealilng with several outputs produced simultaneously | 22:27:20 |

| Bruno Rodrigues | very nice I'll have to play around with it | 07:18:04 |

 maupind | Do many people here work with non-nix users, particularly people on Windows? Curious on workflows that you use to share your code/projects. I've played around with the rix package (awesome work Bruno Rodrigues), but trying to make as low of barrier entry as possible. I'm hoping to be able to upload code used in research data analysis and would love a simple approach with as little work for end-users who may want to check. I've thought Docker could work and also been told about devcontainer.json as an option. Any other ideas/tips? | 15:54:00 |
 Jez (he/him) ♾️ | i'm still pretty new to using nix in this way, but i mostly rely on the "standard" tools for this (e.g. requirements.txt/pyproject.yaml for python) and then adapt them for nix for my own convenience, either with automated tools like mach-nix where they work, or otherwise by hand (because my requirements are usually fairly simple) | 16:02:04 |

| maupind | Have only just started getting into Python. That seems like it'd be a good option for my projects that end up using it though | 07:15:26 |

| Bruno Rodrigues | friends I've written a blog post on literate programming with Nix | 14:58:25 |
| Bruno Rodrigues | it focuses on Quarto and R, but the main takeaways can be adapted to any tools and languages | 14:58:48 |

| srid | Hi all, what do people generally use for jupyter notebooks? https://github.com/tweag/jupyenv ? Or some other way? | 15:20:19 |
| srid | In particular, I'm looking nixify (flake'ify, actually, so it can be nix runed) https://github.com/fastai/fastbook | 15:20:35 |
