 Julien | In reply to @garbas:matrix.orgWe can use the old instance to work on the survey. hopefully the migration will happen before the end of week | 06:39:40 |
 djacu | That's great Tom! Also IdaBzo , per garbas 's comment, I have already created a thread on discourse for this event and uploaded pictures. https://discourse.nixos.org/t/april-13-socal-nix-users-group-meetup/42766 I'll make a post for the next event coming up in June as well. | 19:32:39 |
| djacu | Is there anything else that would be helpful to put in these threads? I can add future plans if I know them. For this one, I know that we have a meetup planned for June 1st. | 19:34:36 |
 ibizaman | Is this the correct place to suggest a change to the little video that's in the front page of https://nixos.org/ ? I love it but I'd suggest to change the comments or just remove the comments saying "Pause the video and take the time to understand the file being displayed". The video is assuming that 1/ people have the time for that 2/ nix is easy to understand. It's probably also letting down ppl that try to read it but fail to understand. I'd vote to change the comment to actually explain a little bit what the file is doing. It's kind of weird to advice doing that for a video that's meant to showcase nix IMO. | 22:44:44 |
| ibizaman | And I just noticed that one can select text inside that video?! that's so cool | 22:45:27 |
| ibizaman | Haha, I was wondering how to sell building docker images through nix to my company but the low disk usage, as shown in the video, is probably my best bet. 😍 | 22:47:13 |

 @kranzes:matrix.org | I think Xe Iaso had a talk about this recently | 00:09:59 |

| djacu | In reply to @kranzes:matrix.orgThey did at NixCon NA a month ago; ibizaman and I were there. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXHG3-CZ7CU | 03:47:07 |
| djacu | They have a playlist for all the talks but they are missing the first workshop. I was waiting till they fixed it before sharing it here. | 03:47:42 |
| ibizaman | In reply to @djacu:matrix.orgI do remember I attended it 😊 It was really cool and I learned a bunch from it. I don’t think the two included actual numbers on how much smaller the docker container could be. But I could remember wrong. | 04:26:06 |
| ibizaman | In reply to @djacu:matrix.org* Yes I attended it 😊 It was really cool and I learned a bunch from it. I don’t think the two included actual numbers on how much smaller the docker container could be. But I could remember wrong. | 04:26:15 |
 tomberek | (Shameless self-plug) we had some numbers on size savings in here: https://youtu.be/l17oRkhgqHE?si=kntCusLV1OKmJI1i | 04:37:38 |

 Arian | I want to give a shot at adding the new AMIS to the homepage. But I was wondering. Can the Website build access the network? The easiest would be for the AWSTable.astro to pull in either from https://nixos.github.io/amis/images.json or even just put the ec2.DescribeImages call in Astro directly | 12:19:13 |

The easiest would be for the AWSTable.astro to pull in either from https://nixos.github.io/amis/images.json or even just put the ec2.DescribeImages call in Astro directly | 12:19:33 |
| Arian | Or should I pull in the list using client-side JS? | 12:19:43 |
| Arian | client-side JS probably makes more sense? | 12:19:59 |
| garbas | Arian: You can do both. But I think having this done client-side would be best. | 13:03:34 |
| garbas | And I'm sure you'll be able to figure out how to add client side script with Astro (https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/client-side-scripts/#using-script-in-astro) | 13:04:22 |
| Arian | gotcha | 13:04:52 |
| garbas | In reply to @ibizaman:matrix.orgYes this would be the correct place. I can answer all the questions why it is the way it is. But if you have a better example I'd love to see it. It is hard to strike a balance between informative enough and not too long, especially with Nix. | 13:07:30 |
| ibizaman | In reply to @garbas:matrix.orgI fully agree about the balance being hard. I wanted to make a PR earlier to show what I had in mind but didn’t have time yet 😓 I’ll have one shortly | 13:36:30 |

 Sigmanificient | In reply to @sigmanificient:matrix.org Hello again, any plan to integrate a script to automatically bump package count on both search.nixos.org & nixpkgs? I proposed a simple script on the issue, which can surely be improved. I don't know anything about elm, and I am unsure on what to exactly do to help, so your help would be appreciated to sort this out! | 18:28:56 |

| Sigmanificient | * Hello again, last time we bumped the packages count to a round 100k, but this might happen again in the future and the original issue is about the value being hard-coded.
