ok Im new here and looking for cool ppl to interact with, so if you're into any of those:

- open source
- k8s
- ADHD/ASD
- LGBTQ rights
- feminism
- tabletop RPGs
- cartoons
- philosophy
- music (any kind, but mostly electronic & hip hop)

I'd be very excited to vibe together on this platform
Ok radical idea - what if we just started to keep misgendering cis transphobes?

Anyone played around with github.com/pdtpartners/... or in general knows stuff about how to unfuck a golang flake that's not working?

I am low key ashamed by getting bested by a damn vendorHash :C

Okay, does anyone have a transfem guide to rust for dummies?

I need to complete the pipeline

Okay I have a hot #musicsky take

Pink Floyd is absolutely overhyped, gives strong over-engineered and straight tiresome to listen to.

And The Dark Side of the Moon is the worst offender.

Ok it's me again with yet again grafana alloy issue.

Seems like loki.process stage.timestamp is not rewriting the timestamps even though it is properly configured. At least in case of RFC3339

🧵I am still looking for the best way. Before nix I've usually deployed stuff to it with fluxcd, which was bootstrapped by terraform.

And it was nice, flux managed everything workload wise, Ansible + terraform took care of provisioning infra and flux bootstrap.
Ok folx, how do u actually run kubernetes on NixOS? I am eager to hear your ways.

Okay, what is the best practice when it comes to structuring your NixOS configs for multiple machines in a monorepo?

Currently one: github.com/maxxieb/nixo...

And honestly the redundancy in the codebase across my HP and ThinkPad configs really annoys me.

Feel free to roast me.

Ok, amazing nix ppl in my phone:

I wanna rewrite the build process of a go app I'm hacking on to nix.

Currently it's built by:

1. running a python script that downloads a lot of public certificates by curling a website and then grabbing all the download links (downloads couple 100s certs)

ok there's no save button here so I'm just gonna keep yapping

anyway - this, this is great

btw - i am almost absolutely oblivious to lix - is there any added value when it comes to using it over standard nix?
Nix doesn't have a docs problem it has a discovery problem!

So let me fix that by giving you all my favorite docs, youtubers, blogs and nix projects. (also no personal config have been listed)

Make sure to reply if you think i missed any.

Okay, fellow observability people in my phone: let's say I've got a big JSON file I want to parse and visualize in Loki as logs. How to do it in the most performant and scalable way?

the stack is basically: golang, k8s, grafana, loki, alloy

there is not a day on this website when I wouldn't learn about yet another cool nix/nixos project
They also don't update + they include file system mounts, which imo should not be left there.

This is why things like nixos-hardware exist, hardware always needs something more and has quirks that will never be addressed by the auto config.

I object to calling Singal a pedophile only in that I think his interest in pedophilia is actually more sinister. He is building a case that it is a sexual orientation but also morally wrong—establishing that some sexual orientations can or should be criminalized.

the other biggest lie is the state not having its own money and comparing the government's budget to a household budget
the most pernicious lie of reaganism/thatcherism is that every individual part of the world needs to be profitable. the idea of a “public good” is being lost.

in football terms, it’s like insisting every player on the pitch has to score, and getting rid of anyone who doesn’t.

oh fuck no, 262 words on PowerPoint slide is a crime against humanity
It’s a pamphlet or a bullet list.

Maybe a PowerPoint slide… not a presentation, just one slide.
