 @corngood:corngood.com | Thanks! I'll look into this. I don't mind funding something if it's not crazy expensive. | 17:53:08 |
 dramforever | namespace.so should be pretty good | 17:53:37 |
| @corngood:corngood.com | Setting cygwin aside. What are we looking at if other platforms (e.g. msvc) advance? | 17:53:40 |
| dramforever | and iirc even the free tier of cachix has quite a bit of space | 17:54:04 |
 hexa | I have no idea what msvc is | 17:54:07 |
| @corngood:corngood.com | microsoft's proprietary compiler. I guess I'm wondering about any builds that need to run on windows | 17:54:37 |
| hexa | run an rfc to extend the platform tiers and find out | 17:54:54 |
| dramforever | also for reference, the loongarch teams runs "our" own hydra on "our" nixpkgs fork, but at least that's still just linux | 17:55:10 |
| hexa | but effectively windows machines maintained by the infra team | 17:55:52 |
 7c6f434c | To add Tier-4 support RFC is not needed, to add Tier-3 RFC is kind of not enough | 17:56:07 |
| hexa | and the status quo is that we don't even have people to deal with the darwin machines as would be required | 17:56:12 |
| @corngood:corngood.com | I was thinking of running my own hydra/builder, but I wanted to check in to make sure there's no existing plans for windows builds. It sounds like there isn't. | 17:56:43 |
| dramforever | does nix builds even work on windows yet | 17:57:13 |
