 afontain | having to do some reading of the manual is definitely required. I don't think setting expectations that this isn't something really important is such a good idea | 11:31:33 |
| afontain | I think that if you want more upsides than downsides by using NixOS, you have to be technically inclined enough. Otherwise it's probaly not worth the complication | 11:34:20 |
| afontain | Maybe keeping the requirement of reading the manual and doing the installation yourself, and ideally reviewing the config file, is not a bad idea | 11:35:44 |

| putchar | hello people
i wanted to let you know that some links looks broken on the main nixos.org website | 21:49:55 |
| putchar | 
Download nixos.png | 21:50:23 |
| putchar | in my case this is the broken link i found https://nixos.org/guides/how-nix-works.html | 21:52:25 |
 jonringer | In reply to @putch4r:matrix.org
in my case this is the broken link i found https://nixos.org/guides/how-nix-works.html Thanks for letting us know, I created an issue: https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-homepage/issues/784 | 22:39:43 |
| jonringer | IIRC, some of those are scraped from nix.dev, most likely that tutorial was moved | 22:40:04 |
| putchar | I made a tweet while I was banned about this issue. I can remove it now | 22:55:02 |
 f0x | banned? I only see a redaction | 22:56:19 |
| f0x | probably because the first message contained a link or smth | 22:56:32 |
| putchar | Yeah it's fixed now. I think I pasted + texted too fast in the chan | 22:57:17 |

 garbas | putchar: jonringer: thank you for reporting it. I fixed it yesterday evening. | 09:57:14 |
 samueldr | garbas: we'll have SVG modifications from common styles correctly auto-updating on save soon enough | 21:59:57 |
| garbas | samueldr: you found the solution? | 22:00:35 |
| samueldr | yes, making a less plugin to read the SVGs during lessc invocation rather than embed hapazardly | 22:01:03 |
| samueldr | though during development we'll be missing the svgo step for the time being | 22:01:39 |
| samueldr | at least for the first draft; there's a way forward, but I'm not Makefile-knowledgeable enough to know how to implement it | 22:01:58 |
| samueldr | currently AFAICT any common style update correctly propagates | 22:02:21 |
| samueldr | previously (probably limited to svg.less) some changes required to change something else to cause a rebuild | 22:03:00 |
| samueldr | I should probably undo my test changes

| samueldr | I have to protest again against use of squash and merge: it makes rebases needlessly arduous, and spent too long looking at a WIP branch to find out which commits were already part of the main branch or not | 00:47:44 |
| samueldr | in addition to losing all the context of changes | 00:47:51 |

 ncfavier | could you elaborate on that bit "it makes rebases needlessly arduous" ? | 10:09:00 |
 tomberek | hey, i had a dog emergency. who got picked? | 20:48:00 |
| garbas | tomberek: I was :) here are the minutes -> https://discourse.nixos.org/t/2022-01-19-marketing-meeting-minutes/17209 | 21:23:32 |
