<elvishjerricco> Wow. I had not realized how much of a shit show supporting macos has been for nix. How much of it is because / is readonly? And if that's the main problem, at what point to we just say fuck it and change the standard store path on macos?

<siraben> evalexpr: hm, I'm using Nix on macOS fine, what issue are you referring to?
<siraben> You can use /etc/synthetic.conf to make an entry to /nix that points to an APFS volume
<elvishjerricco> siraben: This issue revealed a pretty big cascade of potential issues to me: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/116341
<{^_^}> #116341 (by toonn, 7 weeks ago, open): Status of macOS
<siraben> Oops wrong ping, meant elvishjerricco
<elvishjerricco> figured :P
<eyJhb> siraben: Isn't anything Apple a shit show?
<elvishjerricco> In the not-so-distant past it was a pretty good unix environment as far as programming goes. But they've been really killing that advantage the past four years or so
<eyJhb> It's what they do best atm....
<eyJhb> What should I kill the time with while at the mechanic? Any ideas?
<MichaelRaskin> What equipment do you consider small enough to bring along?
<eyJhb> MichaelRaskin: Currently there and have my laptop
<eyJhb> :D
<MichaelRaskin> If you have laptop and even internet connection, how is this any special situation?
<eyJhb> MichaelRaskin: Small screen, bad connection, bad chair/desk.. So can't do what I would normally do
<eyJhb> But yes, it isn't that special I agree :)
<eyJhb> But I have to do something for the next 1.5 hours or so...
<eyJhb> *besides praying
<MichaelRaskin> Isn't there some text you planned to read but always ended up putting off? Almost all laptops are wider than a supermajority of books…

<siraben> eyJhb: yeah i just remembered we also have SDK woes
<infinisil> Ohh yes, the joy of coming back to a project after 3 years and it still working as I left it because of Nix
<__monty__> With pinning?
<siraben> meanwhile I ran into the pain of a project not working after a year because I used cabal >.<
<siraben> infinisil: which language is it written in?
<__monty__> siraben: Sounds like you didn't provide constraints?
<siraben> __monty__: I bounded base < 4.14, I think.
<infinisil> __monty__: Yeah pinned nixpkgs 17.03 :D
<hodapp> ooh, reading about content-addressed Nix now
<infinisil> siraben: It's my custom keyboard layout using qmk
<hodapp> I guess I had never really thought of the difference between content-addressed and input-addressed
<siraben> Ooh, nixpkgs 17.03, did you have to fetch gigabytes of deps?
<infinisil> So C
<infinisil> Was pretty fast, less than a minute
<__monty__> siraben: Well, that's actually useful in case the base in a newer GHC simply isn't compatible. Not a troublesome fix though.
<infinisil> Very lightweight project, but still :D
<siraben> __monty__: yeah I removed the upper bound and it worked, however maybe I should have used cabal2nix and pinned
<siraben> that's great, I like being able to GC dependencies of projects I don't work actively on, revisiting it later knowing it will work, guaranteed
<hodapp> siraben: this is something I rely on myself... it definitely comes in handy when working on many different projects at once

<gchristensen> a hazard of developing hydra is wondering why your computer is swapping so hard and programs are being oom'd, and then realizing you're evaluating 3 copies of nixpkgs at once and you can't even fully evaluate one copy of nixpkgs
<__monty__> That sounds even worse than me and my endless LLVM builds :"(

<gchristensen> hehe
<lassulus> so after 100% minimal iso we check the graphical one?
<cole-h> you already can, but it's a bit hidden: https://r13y.com/iso-gnome/index.html
<cole-h> (and by hidden I mean it's only there if you have the link I believe)
<gchristensen> and the build of it has been failing because it is out of disk space I guess ... hmmm

<samueldr> I like how the census asks me the language I speak at home... while I generally don't do much more than noises at the cat and calling her name
<ar> samueldr: is there a free-form text field there? if so, i'd be tempted to put "cat" there
<samueldr> also, the subtext seems to imply "with your family / friends", while ignoring some aspects of things that happens at home, like online gamers, or people like me who get involved in communities online
<samueldr> ar: yes, freeform entries
<samueldr> at least there was a "any comments/questions" text field at the end, where I added a long form comment about how this question is bad
<samueldr> and should probably be split in questions "with your family" "with your friends" "around your neighborhood (e.g. shopping)", "at work"
<samueldr> I can see many locales around the country where splitting it four-ways like that actually is needed
<samueldr> people speaking with friends and family a language Z, while living in their neighborhood speaking Y, and at work having to use X
<MichaelRaskin> Maybe for «at home» they should gate the question on household size above 1…
<MichaelRaskin> (Of course it does not guarantee that the question makes sense for all non-single-person households, but probably good enough for statistical purposes)
cole-h has quit [Quit: Goodbye]
<samueldr> the language question is important, so fixing it, rather than removing it, is important
<samueldr> and it is my pedantic ass that has trouble with it
cole-h has joined #nixos-chat
<samueldr> it's "obvious" that it's meant to be the languages you use with family and friends
<samueldr> might be better served by pre/postPatching in whatever data it needs from .git

<gchristensen> hrm. ocrmypdf isn't built for aarch64 ... I suspect I'm in for a bad time trying to build it on a pi
NinjaTrappeur has joined #nixos-chat
<adisbladis> Bulding pretty much anything on a pi is a recipe for a bad time
<adisbladis> Or a very long time at least
<ar> it's still sometimes faster than building stuff through qemu user emu
<adisbladis> Oh yes, that's also not great...
<adisbladis> I tried building a kernel like that, not gonna try that again
<gchristensen> I hope it at least finishes?
<adisbladis> gchristensen: Why not on the aarch64 community builder?
<ar> adisbladis: i did build a kernel like that a couple of times. on my 5950x…
<srk> I'm running armv7l laptop, with xmonad :D
<ar> adisbladis: otherwise it would be unbearably long
<adisbladis> ar: I could imagine doing the same on my desktop
<adisbladis> But I don't exactly have access to that one any more :/
<ar> (that way it was just annoyingly long)
<gchristensen> womp womp, it fails to build
<adisbladis> Probably why it wasn't cached ;)
<samueldr> first use the community builder to quickly get failures, and then hack for a plausible succes
<samueldr> success*
<samueldr> *then* do your final build in trustable environment :)
<samueldr> adisbladis: fugly as in functionally ugly?

<pie_> Synthetica: were you the one with the nix snippet for building stuff from a local git checkout
<samueldr> something about nix-shell with .overrideAttrs src = /* somehow pwd */, right?
<pie_> yeah something something
<pie_> samueldr: why do i keep forgetting to search that
<pie_> it was something like nix-shell -I nixpkgs=channel:nixos-unstable -E "with import <nixpkgs> {}; poke.overrideAttrs (old: { src = ./.; })" -v
<pie_> with a $1 in place of thepackage or something
NinjaTrappeur has joined #nixos-chat

<pie_> samueldr: sometimes my memory does not fail me 0_o https://logs.nix.samueldr.com/nixos-chat/2021-04-26#4908309
<pie_> samueldr: i also tried searching nix-build \./\.
<adisbladis> samueldr: I'll let you interpret that as you wish
<samueldr> adisbladis: :)
<samueldr> pie_: aw, it was nix-build!
<samueldr> but I see the difference with what I had in mind
<pie_> ok but nix-shell needs a mkShell
* pie_ adds that
<pie_> Synthetica's thing is cuter :(
<pie_> samueldr: thanks for the pointer
