@jackdk:matrix.orgjackdkso, you know the gg paper, right? where they instrumented a build system and did all the actual building on Lambda? Has anyone played with using Lambda as a remote builder for nix?05:47:18
@andi:kack.itandi-Eelco did some hacking on using an SQS queue for the actual worker queue: https://github.com/edolstra/nix/commits/aws-store09:03:30

@mic92:nixos.devMic92 (Old)How much compute power does one get there? Also traffic costs in aws can be significant.07:48:04

@colemickens:matrix.orgcolemickensconfession: I regret some of my Azure whining, I don't know how people get by in every other cloud without the concept of ARM groups. Cleaning up a handful of sporadic resources in OCI is a nightmare. Either do it by hand, or you spin up a Stack, and a Job, (actually two because the first might fail) which causes OCI to run Terraform for you to do the mass delete.00:26:30

@josw:matrix.orgjoswThen again, I often wonder how much they read into Nix to get where they are now with Azure08:24:42
@josw:matrix.orgjoswkinda hurts...08:25:13

Tomberek has experimented with it https://github.com/tomberek/lambdanix Also I believe that nowadays (2+ years after that attempt) things might have become easier as now lambda supports using custom container images so long they respect a few conventions

@kamadorueda:matrix.orgkamadoruedaI personally find lambda quite an interesting target because of scalability04:50:00

Thank you for the pointer. I'll have a dig around.
