hexa | you kinda went in without a concrete plan | 01:41:41 |
hexa | prior art was linked early on and not acted upon | 01:42:01 |
crertel | I was asking for a plan, and the information you just gave me--which would've been helpful to have on a comment on that PR--is a big help. Thank you! | 01:42:05 |
crertel | There's another philosophical question which is: would it be a good idea to put security right on the navbar? My personal bet is yes, because:
- there was a semi-high-profile kerfluffle earlier this year and not having an obvious single touchpoint seems to have hurt there.
- more generally (outside of internal NixOS stuff), one of the hugely useful things about using NixOS is supply chain integrity and other things of interest to security-conscious users.
