 infinisil | The first point is the most time-consuming one, but I know how to go about it. After that it's smooth sailing | 08:54:12 |
| infinisil | Whether this is in scope for this team, I'm not sure, but I see a lot of value we could get from this for nixpkgs :) | 08:55:33 |
 j-k | as discussed in the meeting, if this was discourse this would be quite a bit easier to follow
cc: infinisil | 08:58:36 |
| infinisil | j-k: Not disagreeing, but I think Matrix has a place for quick discussions | 09:02:02 |
| infinisil | Though it's hard to know when to use Matrix vs Discourse. Should discussions from Matrix be summarized in Discourse like a meeting log? Might make sense if we consider Matrix as just textual meetings | 09:04:54 |
| infinisil | Is it okay to reach out to somebody in Matrix when you want to quickly chat about a Discourse post? I'd think so, but then it's easy to not follow up on Discourse | 09:05:36 |
 Alyssa Ross | can't you link to relevant Matrix logs on Discourse? | 09:06:38 |
| infinisil | Going from audio/video meetings, over Matrix to Discourse, you lose efficiency, but you gain persistence 🤔 | 09:06:46 |
| infinisil | Alyssa Ross: Oh that sounds pretty good | 09:07:07 |
| infinisil | Would be cool if there was a Matrix GitHub integration, where GitHub could show a Matrix conversation inline | 09:07:59 |
| infinisil | Or s/GitHub/Discourse | 09:09:46 |
|  adisbladis joined the room. | 09:27:51 |
| infinisil | Regarding GitHub vs Discourse, I think both have their place: GitHub for task tracking and persistent development discussions, while Discourse is better when we need feedback from the wider community and end-users | 09:41:34 |
|  tim joined the room. | 09:54:38 |
| infinisil | Made some proposed adjustments to the main team document, feel free to take a look: https://github.com/nixpkgs-architecture/.github/pull/2 | 10:00:27 |
|  lvkm joined the room. | 10:56:55 |
|  squalus joined the room. | 13:00:09 |
| infinisil | We'll have the second meeting shortly! | 14:53:14 |
|  mkaito joined the room. | 14:58:25 |
| infinisil | @room Next meeting is now in https://meet.jit.si/nixpkgs-architecture if you want to join :) | 15:01:21 |
 Taeer Bar-Yam | Alas, I can't make it today. Next time! | 15:01:57 |
| j-k | same. have a work demo to deliver | 15:02:36 |
| infinisil | Thanks for joining again everybody! Feel free to fix up https://pad.lassul.us/uIi7xeSJTW6LJUEHulZgVQ a bit, I'll only put it into the meetings repository later | 16:05:39 |
 problems | wasm may be an option if there's a sufficiently portable interpreter but i'm not aware of one atm | 16:05:49 |
| problems | it does hard-rely on ieee floating point behavior, so that excludes... vax :p | 16:06:16 |
 yorik.sar | What's "sufficiently portable"? | 16:06:20 |
| infinisil | I guess Nix is mostly used on just a couple platforms, but there's effort by a bunch of people to support more exotic platforms | 16:07:15 |
| yorik.sar | I mean, we should probably define that. | 16:07:16 |
| yorik.sar | There's also https://github.com/SwadicalRag/wasm2lua that could be used as last resort for such platforms... | 16:08:19 |
 kevincox | FWIW I don't think we need to exactly define it. We consider it as part of the tradeoff. If two options are basically the same but one supports 10 "systems" and the other only supports 8 we prefer the 10 one. However there is probably a minimum set that is a deal breaker that we can define. | 16:08:21 |
