 infinisil | garbas: IdaBzo: Now this is some news to post! https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nixos-foundation-board-giving-power-to-the-community/44552 | 03:09:11 |
 djacu | Hey team
I've made some progress on the official Nix cheat sheet. Looking for some initial feedback. Preview in thread. | 05:06:12 |

| infinisil | djacu Nothing other than that looking absolutely dope! | 07:40:31 |
| infinisil | djacu Oh here's something else: inherit doesn't alway desugar to x = x | 07:42:11 |
| infinisil | E.g. `x: rec { inherit x; }` | 07:43:33 |
 raboof | cool! the 'bind set arguments' (top-right) can't decide between 'set' or 'args' it seems? | 07:51:27 |
| raboof | maybe use 'attribute set' rather than just 'set' in that description? ('set' may invoke different expectations to people not familiar with nix) | 07:52:43 |
| raboof | * cool! the 'bind set arguments' (bottom-right) can't decide between 'set' or 'args' it seems? | 07:53:12 |
| infinisil | djacu Also "update" attribute sets instead of "merge". Merge sounds recursive | 08:03:44 |
| infinisil | djacu Actually maybe it's best to just post it in a Nix issue so that the Nix team can briefly bikeshed and check it? :P | 08:05:04 |
| infinisil | It looks really cool though, let's get that posted soon! | 08:05:26 |
 tomberek | Perhaps a mention that builtins exist? A full pverview is out of scope, but it might be good to point out. | 08:47:55 |

| raboof | good point, maybe point to 'further references' like https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/builtins.html and https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/unstable/#id-1.4 ? Getting hard to fit in, though, I can imagine ;) | 09:07:40 |

maybe use 'attribute set' rather than just 'set' in that description? ('set' may invoke different expectations to people not familiar with nix) Yeah ideally I would use 'attribute set' here but it didn't fit on a single line. Space is a premium so I shortened it to set. Thinking about just removing the word 'set` here. Since it is a continuation from the previous three examples, it should be clear that it is still an attrset | 15:11:05 |
