yuu | reading this again, probably one is not implying the other. still "upgrading one package cannot break other packages" is pretty confusing what means; because upgrading package/nixpkgs can and often break other packages | 02:40:15 |

djacu | Sure upgrading nixpkgs can break all sorts of things. But if I were to create an example based on the first sentence, let's say we have two packages pinned in my config. If I upgrade one of them, it should never break the other, even if they share dependencies or one is dependent on the other, and that is due to the atomic nature in which Nix handles packages. | 04:02:23 |
Solène Rapenne (she/her) | I suppose many people are using nix-env so upgrading a package doesn't break one installed which would still be available | 08:34:36 |

Solène Rapenne (she/her) | hello, I'd like to add a page to the website, ideally something named "Try it" on the top links. The idea would be to show readers how to use nix: there are various means to try it like using docker, live shell on replit, install nix with the installer, run a nixos VM etc... | 12:44:07 |
Solène Rapenne (she/her) | I'm not sure how to get approval to do this? | 12:44:22 |
Solène Rapenne (she/her) | I prefer asking before doing the work | 12:44:37 |
tomberek | Solène Rapenne (she/her): a simple low-barrier-to-entry would be excellent on the front page. Installation + complexities seem to be an adoption hurdle. The docker section in "installation" is a start, but not quite prominent enough. | 18:12:14 |

Bryan Honof | Eelco 😴 garbas tomberek FOSDEM is running again this year, and they're calling for devrooms. Do you think it'd be a good idea to try and get a Nix devroom? We'd be responsible for filling it up as well. But given the amount of talks submitted to NixCon this year, I don't think that'll be a problem. | 09:41:18 |
