<samueldr>
now, that's a different origin story
<samueldr>
11 Nov 1999: wrote mod_homer, a simple Apache module that says "Doh!".
<gchristensen>
:o :D
<samueldr>
am I missing something or is this just echoing `rm -f thing` and not actually doing it? like @echo seems like a counter intuitive thing in makefiles?
<joepie91>
feels like the quick-and-dirty approach to implementing this, would be a tool that every N time checks the howoldis API, compares the latest commit to the latest commit in a local XML (RSS) file, and appends it if necessary; and then exposes an API along the lines of /feed?channels=18.09,unstable or so that merges the XML files at request time

jasongrossman: only in the same way following politics is
<jasongrossman>
Taneb: Right.

CQFD

uh

QED
<jasongrossman>
It's not EVEN security through obscurity.
<samueldr>
s/ through obscurity//
<jasongrossman>
Right.

hello Nix friends! I am thrilled to announce lorri, a project by Profpatsch, shlevy, Tweag, Target, and myself -- it aims to be a nicer nix-shell for your projects! check it out: https://www.tweag.io/posts/2019-03-28-introducing-lorri.html
<Taneb>
Seems neat
<emily>
:o
<emily>
"lorri was built by Tweag for Target" what's with Target doing a bunch of random FP stuff?
<Taneb>
If I was a) looking for a job, and b) willing to relocate to the US, Target's definitely somewhere I'd think about
<Taneb>
But I'm not and I'm not, so I'll just use their tools
<joepie91>
lol
<Taneb>
I think I'll try out Lorri over the weekend
<etu>
gchristensen: That explains why you talked about running the garbage collector every 10 minutes before ;)
<gchristensen>
:)
<gchristensen>
(I mentioned that in the blog post, but couldn't find a nice way to work it in is a co-authored post)
<etu>
Looking forward to trying it out

gchristensen: ...does your IRC client render Markdown?
<emily>
also, looks exciting
<emily>
Taneb: it does say "We are a distributed team. Our company is based in Minneapolis, MN and our team is based in Sunnyvale, CA, but more than 50% of the team works outside these areas, and we operate as a remote-first team."
<emily>
although they also list the location as Sunnyvale on the posting :/
<emily>
companies love being ambiguous about remote work, it seems
<joepie91>
their HR software might not have an 'Earth' option for the location :)
<Taneb>
emily: OK, so it's a no and a maybe rather than two nos :P
<emily>
joepie91: hmph. just because the ping from Mars is a bit long doesn't mean I can't do effective work
<gchristensen>
emily: it doesn't, just making a joke
<joepie91>
:D
<gchristensen>
emily: where are you located?
<gchristensen>
(could PM if you'd prefer)
<gchristensen>
actually, it doesn't matter. my reply will be the same no matter what
<gchristensen>
if you're interested, apply
<Ralith>
gchristensen: you work there?
<gchristensen>
I work for Tweag, Tweag does work for Target
<gchristensen>
I work with their team to do cool stuff like build lorri

Tweag is somewhere that for me only has one "no" (ie. I'm not currently looking for a job)

<Taneb>
gchristensen: are their any constraints on where people can work for Tweag remotely from?
<Taneb>
There's a chance I'm going to have to seriously consider moving to Italy for personal reasons in the next year or so, which would give a serious knock to my one remaining no
andi- has joined #nixos-chat
<gchristensen>
I'm assuming you live somewhere represented by that map
<Taneb>
Currently UK
<gchristensen>
should be fine, then
<Taneb>
As in, if I'm eligible to work in the UK I can work for Tweag?
<gchristensen>
I don't think Tweag requirement on where you are, and I was trying to make a joke by asking if you were on the map (trying to suggest that answering yes means you'd be fine)
<Taneb>
I see
<Taneb>
Thanks :)
<samueldr>
gchristensen: (joking) can't work if you're in the south of australia, south of south america and in antarctica?
<gchristensen>
(but also, this map excludes New Zealand and well-populated parts of Australia, and I think we'd expand the map to support that)
<gchristensen>
haha
<samueldr>
gchristensen: NZ expanded to 100% my window shows full NZ :)
<Taneb>
Also, Italy is pretty well hidden by the W and E in TWEAG
<gchristensen>
we've had to redesign this page in the past as new people joined
<MichaelRaskin>
gchristensen: I wonder if Tweag has large enough presence in Europe to be able to do the dance necessary to work with people living in Iran.
<gchristensen>
that is *significantly* above my paygrade
<MichaelRaskin>
Iran is quite visible on the map…
<gchristensen>
a great question
<Taneb>
Getting back to making that RSS feed thingy
<MichaelRaskin>
(no I don't know anyone there who wants to work for Tweag)
<gchristensen>
* exceptions apply, due to geopolitical concerns outside of Tweag's control
<samueldr>
do the points represent personel, and do they track you live? :3
<gchristensen>
lol
<manveru>
gchristensen: you wanna add lorri to nixpkgs?
<MichaelRaskin>
samueldr: default _city_ of residence is a relevant piece of information in case of global routing wonkiness, so there is a legitimate reason to track.
<gchristensen>
manveru: yeah! thanks! :D
<manveru>
just asking because it takes ages to build rust stuff :P
<gchristensen>
samueldr: that is starting to get pretty specific, but .. I mean ... most employers track where their employees live
<gchristensen>
so they can do things like send tax info, health insurance, etc.
<samueldr>
the question was half truthful: are they for personel or rather local offices, and the latter part, no I don't expect the points to track you :)
<gchristensen>
ah
<gchristensen>
so the glowing dot on the east coast of the US is me ... just me. some of the dots in EU represent many people
<MichaelRaskin>
Health insurance is probably per-country anyway. Tax can be quite localised
<gchristensen>
some of those people have a local office to go to, some of them don't
<manveru>
gchristensen: also, any way to just start `lorri watch` from the `.envrc`? atm it doesn't seem to check if one is running already
<gchristensen>
manveru: we discussed (at a bit of length) ways of doing this, and decided to go ahead and open source it. there is an issue we'll be moving over which talks about it.
<gchristensen>
andi-: want me to write something?
<andi->
gchristensen: sure, you might be able to relate to your results of the hydra settings
<gchristensen>
yeah
<gchristensen>
selecting these numbers is hard, and there is no easy answer -- depends on your work load.
<andi->
Yeah.. I have been drafting a reply for a while but I am having a hard time with him...
<manveru>
that will keep one instance of lorri running per pwd :)
<manveru>
until you close the shell
<gchristensen>
wow!
<manveru>
it's not pretty, but it's good enough for now... might be possible to write with awk or something instead
<manveru>
no clue how to port that to macs either :(
<gchristensen>
=)
<gchristensen>
manveru: mind openinga bug report with this in it?
<manveru>
will do
<gchristensen>
I put some stupid retry logic in r13y and cut back how many builds it does at once (it was running more builds at a time than there were cores. oops.)
