That would require assumption of good faith from all participants.

This resignation post reinforces the view that there is little good faith assumptions amongst the broader Nix ecosystem.

Hi Hexa,

Since you were a moderator at the time of my ban, would care to expand as to why I was banned, and what you meant by "purge the Nazis?"

(Thanks for all your work on rust)

There is some work to get nix to work with Windows, this is mostly being done by john ericson.

However, the real issue is that nixpkgs (the repository containing all nix expressions) heavily assume unix paradigms.

There could be a "nix-windows repository" in the medium to far future, but it will likely be very divergent from the current nix+nixpkgs story of today.

That there's an established clique? I agree.

Nice, really interesting usage of nixpkgs :). Almost a command line friendly version of docker build.

I like it.

Compost takes 20 days to 20 months depending on the feed stock. The main issue with compost is that it can be effective in high-intensity operations like market gardens, but it's much less effective on large acre operations (corn, soy, wheat, etc).

Not to mention that compost is really difficult to come by now.

Unless a farmer is making compost on the side, they can't really treat it as a known input.

I would also argue that chronic over-usage of ammonia-based fertilizers and over-tiling has contributed to degradation to much of the world's farming soil. Which has given rise to many adverse effects such nutrient runoff, poor water infiltration, soil erosion, and downstream effects.

For external users, probably the most exciting "feature" is the use of a calamares installer for the gnome and plasma isos.
