 moritz.hedtke | So actual comparisons with the "old way". Although that example is probably not the most realistic. Still I don't know where this could he put or if this is even a good idea because I also like the current way the website does ist: just give examples | 19:06:47 |

 matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Does anybody know who owns or what the rules are regarding the NixOS company on LinkedIN? | 00:59:41 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | For the time that I'm unemployed (right now) I'd like to put that I "work for NixOS" as a placeholder on my profile, then shoot out some impressive demos, then get employed or get someone's interest. | 01:00:18 |

| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I really do believe Risc-V and Nix has a lot of potential thanks to the work done so far on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/101651 | 02:19:34 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | On LinkedIN I think a lot could be done to market NixOS as a platform for Embedded Systems, especially those built on Risc-V. Something I've thought about for a while. | 02:20:10 |

 davidak | FYI: nixpkgs is again the repository with the most packages. and still the one with most up-to-date packages
https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nixpkgs-has-been-the-largest-repository-for-months/10667/16?u=davidak | 09:08:25 |
| davidak | these stats show that we do something right and our system works and is efficient. especially when you see that AUR has about 10 times the package maintainers | 09:09:30 |
|  siraben changed their display name from siraben (he/him) to siraben. | 16:16:27 |

 Gytis Ivaskevicius | May I suggest removing that paragraph about discrimination. For me paragraphs as such feel very fake and superficial, it might be just me | 11:18:20 |
| Gytis Ivaskevicius | But then again, im just a privileged straight white male 😁 | 11:19:43 |

 David Arnold (blaggacao) | I'd say, this statement is an instance of "extending a hand". It has more meaning to some and close to none to others. | 12:41:12 |

| davidak | fiona, a well known person in the chaos computer club community, created a nixos related poll in the fediverse. 40 people participated in 1 day
a comment: NixOS seems to have more users than I expected.
https://chaos.social/@vidister/106812902217821420 | 17:51:28 |
| davidak | the poll result might also be unexpected | 17:52:13 |
| davidak | or maybe people don't use nixos and just want to see the result and vote for the last option | 17:53:42 |
| davidak | but the poll shows that more people use nixos-unstable than the stable release | 17:54:15 |
