There are no global state mutations in `pkgs`. All immutable parts are in `impure.nix`, which already has a complete `pkgs`. Maybe you are confusing state mutations with fixed poin…

Even though it’s very much out of context for this thread, it’s a little pearl that brought me again a little bit closer to understanding. Thanks!

Most GNOME apps started today are done in Vala afaik. It’s just starting to get traction. Maybe not at fast as $HipsterLang, but steadily.

I have been writing a guide on how to set up a desktop system with NixOS, but I’m not quite finished yet. I wonder how high the interest in something like that would be? I can thro…

Here are my thoughts after quickly glancing over the „features“: 1. No formatting rules and verbose „end“ I thought that by now it was universally accepted that having clear rules …

ikr? We should start a lobby. :) Though I would be worried if I heard yandere in any context other than manga/anime.

It’s tsundere-speak. Only they are young white males.

Hijacking another programming language name for your own cheap JS-syntax clone? Nice move, jerks!

Unix time is representing seconds, and seconds are a human measurement which use decimal notation.

6000 seconds. That’s still about 2 hours. :)

That was quite amazing. I’m thrilled to check out Light Table now. But I’m at a loss, since I just got Clojure running in Emacs pretty well, complete with Vim keybindings. Yet, I c…

Holy crap. Or write Sony’s user management. Or Adobe’s. Or …
