firing up a chromium build on the 48 threads
<ivan>
learned a lot of chromium things I didn't want to know today

a lot of chromium is devoted to firing up one of eight different GL implementations
<ivan>
we've been vulnerable to horrible CVEs for an extra 4 days because someone decided to rearrange at runtime an array with the GL implementations based on a feature experiment
<ivan>
it takes the ANGLE and puts it first, which doesn't load for whatever reason

Any idea what kinds of projects we'd want to mentor?
<ris>
off the top of my head? no.
<ris>
but i'm sure a call for proposals would generate some suggestions
<simpson>
I'd recommend going in the other direction, and first figuring out plans before applying for GSoC. It's a lot of bureaucracy and hassle for a few pennies, and projects that don't understand the nature of the deliverables can spend a lot of time and effort for not much return.
<ris>
interesting point
<ris>
anyway, i mentioned it more as a community notice than anything
<genesis>
any project that accelerates nixpkgs reviews and merges.
<simpson>
genesis: GSoC deliverables are usually code artifacts; it probably would not be an acceptable project to have somebody do extra code review for a summer.

oki, Forgotten hopes buried in your soul's lonely grave

(anathema)
<genesis>
what's best when we have plenty of new packages in branches, to make them available easily for others
<genesis>
i switch people to nixos and i do the job to package theirs needs, but i don't have good workflow on this.
<genesis>
i saw some nur or home-manager stuffs around, need advise.
