@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius(the outPath alert was a false alarm but guess why just by reading this diff)17:35:27
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius(and then hate nixpkgs)17:35:35
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw How on earth does this work in pure mode to begin with? 17:36:55
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusi have no idea :D17:37:22
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusbut this is fucking cursed code that has been accepted in nixpkgs17:37:34
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius i think nixpkgs CI doesn't run in pure mode actually? 17:37:44
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw But surely someone runs this with fakes on their system? 17:40:01
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw But surely someone runs this with flakes on their system? 17:40:10
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius maybe all drbd users are running without flakes 17:40:23
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw …or uses fish, or zsh, and notices not hitting the cache, one would think. 17:41:17
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusnoticing not hitting the cache is definitely an art that is hard to master17:41:59
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw (or just break in fish, for that matter, given that they apparently want bash very specifically instead of any POSIX shell, which fish diverges from somewhat) 17:45:33
@just1602:systemli.orgjust1602There's pepole who actually use drbd outside of ganeti users, which are like Tor and Wikimedia? πŸ˜…18:31:51
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusdon't joke about this18:32:25
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusDGNum runs a drbd cluster18:32:27
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusdrbd is still a quite nice solution :D :D :D18:32:36
@just1602:systemli.orgjust1602Oh, it's really great, I happen to manage VM on ganeti with some friends and it does aesome thing... but I learned a couple of weeks ago that the version in the kernel is a fork that isn't really maintained and is way way behind upstream.... which scares me a little bit. :(18:33:49
@just1602:systemli.orgjust1602* There's people who actually use drbd outside of ganeti users, which are like Tor and Wikimedia? πŸ˜…18:34:05
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw Actually they did write it, I just missed it on the first pass reading. 19:30:26
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw ("Storing a value in an attribute set (or list) preserves its pointer equality even if the structure holding it is modified in some way (as long as the value we care about is left untouched).") 19:30:44
@winter:catgirl.cloudWinter @ma27 am i blind, or does both n-e-j and l-e-j default workers to 1, despite otherwise being said in the readme? https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/src/commit/3ad1af8a9883986eb95744e088eab15c752c339c/subprojects/nix-eval-jobs/src/eval-args.hh#L33 19:59:16
@winter:catgirl.cloudWinter i cannot find a singular place that nrWorkers is set 19:59:26
@ma27:nicht-so.sexyma27 looking at the code, I'm pretty sure that subprojects/nix-eval-jobs/src/eval-args.cc on main does 20:00:31
@ma27:nicht-so.sexyma27(only speaking for lix here, but n-e-j does probably the same, that's no change from us iirc)20:00:45
@winter:catgirl.cloudWinter i don't see this at all? 20:01:33
@winter:catgirl.cloudWinteri only see a handler for going from passed arg -> int20:01:40
