real immutable desktop linux has never been tried

a) this is not true github.com/niri-wm/niri...

b) good architecture and code quality are independent of whether any lines of the code were written by a llm, and can be achieved despite llm usage as long as someone is leading design and reviewing output.

We strongly oppose the Unified Attestation initiative and call for app developers supporting privacy, security and freedom on mobile to avoid it. Companies selling phones should not be deciding which operating systems people are allowed to use for apps.

minnows is something i could use tomorrow and schemas w/ configurable flakes are very useful, even though i think flakes are a local minima (compared to a different solution i'm kinda working on)

Extensible flake outputs with flake schemas Determinate Nix now enables you to declare custom flake output types, making flakes more flexible and introspectable than ever

i have to hand it to them, this cooks

this is hot thank you rust devs

every time I see the phrase "industry standard" in a discussion on technical merits, a part of me dies

the current events and claude glazing factions of my for you feed have teamed up to achieve total victory against all programming posts

the world will get more build systems

i like helix a lot, although there are pain points, such as it lacking gui niceties like varying font sizes or more readable popups. also i wish it had a diff editor. idk how useful it would be to learn helix if you already like vi, helix was my first modal edito

i think you also get maximally distributed remote builders and caches... pretty much for free. all you need is something like unison cloud's deployHttp and remote instances can bootstrap your builder daemon with the same config as everything else + evaluate your derivations

now i don't wanna do problem sets...

the implementation would probably be writing a front end in unison for snix's modular builder and content addressed store infra, which isn't unrealistically difficult. i might try this later

that's pretty much the idea. unison isn't lazily evaluated, which is annoying for some stuff, but the benefit is that your derivations inputs are exact (unison code hash, source hash, input hashes), rather than (all nix code, source hash, input hashes)

but.. unison could also work here, and allow for caching (distributed across different build machines) so fine grained that you never evaluate the same function twice

for context, garn is a project by garnix for using typescript as a replacement for the nix dsl. a restricted verion of v8 (faster than nix) that only allows a few io operations and captured their outputs allows for better caching

i just had a terrible, terrible idea

i need to learn unison...
