Has anyone made a nix riff on Greenspun's tenth rule yet?
Any sufficiently complicated build system contains an ad hoc, informally specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of nix

| ncfavier | if anyone here has write access to nixos-search, could you please approve or merge https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-search/pull/330 ? | 20:27:41 |
| ncfavier | it's currently preventing the unstable channel from being imported, and some options are missing | 20:28:17 |
 samueldr | nf: can you share a missing option name? | 20:29:25 |
| ncfavier | systemd.services | 20:29:39 |
| ncfavier | thanks for the review! | 20:29:42 |
| ncfavier | i merged it | 20:31:02 |
| samueldr | I assumed it was proper enough python, I'm not a python developer | 20:31:28 |
| samueldr | but the logic looked okay if I understood what it did | 20:31:39 |
| samueldr | (couldn't test though) | 20:31:43 |
| ncfavier | the python should be uncontroversial | 20:35:30 |
| ncfavier | what's annoying is that it probably won't import before the unstable channel updates, because of the cache, but oh well | 20:35:57 |

garbas: ~40 minutes warning :) Sorry I won't be this time as well. need to put 4 kids to bed. I'll organize myself better by next time. | 18:27:51 |
| samueldr | n/p, hoped you'd be there, but we'll manage in the end | 18:28:30 |
| samueldr | (I think we did fine last time(s)) | 18:28:45 |
 bpiv400 | I won't be able to attend since I am on the move unfortunately, but davidak sent me his prior work on the survey -- If there's time on the agenda, I think it would be good for members to weigh in on the proposed set of questions: https://pad.nixnet.services/wpvO_S3RTDyLIBqiSPd55Q?view | 18:57:46 |
| bpiv400 | My overall thought: This is a good length. I'd make a couple small tweaks to the logic (e.g. right now, if you answer yes to using NixOS, it assumes that's all you currently use now). I'd also add a question in the Nix section that asks what you use Nix for and another question about what you view as the "alternatives to Nix" | 18:59:56 |
| bpiv400 | Sorry I can't discuss online | 19:00:08 |
| samueldr | no worries, noted | 19:00:28 |
