Why more PC gaming handhelds should ditch Windows for SteamOS
I really want one of these overpowered handhelds so I can run https://jovian-experiments.github.io/Jovian-NixOS/ as a semi-portable daily driver

Flakes aren't real and cannot hurt you: using Nix flakes the non-flake way
Same. Also recently added a steam deck to the fleet with https://jovian-experiments.github.io/Jovian-NixOS/

Hey does someone here have a script that installs Nix inside SteamOS? I've tried one on github but that didn't work
UPDATE: People from the Steam Deck discord community recommended this one: https://github.com/Jovian-Experiments/Jovian-NixOS

Has someone tried to run Guix on Steam Deck?
The only thing relevant to this that I know is https://github.com/Jovian-Experiments/Jovian-NixOS.

Nix + home-manager on Steam Deck
Neat! Personally I went the extra mile and went with NixOS + Jovian-NixOS (to get the Deck's steam-session) on mine. It still requires a couple of workarounds for broken functionality (like SD cards not automounting due to the FHS container, fixed by using a udev rule + replacement script to notify Steam) but otherwise works like a charm!

Technically the steam deck is the only modern console to be immune to jailbreaking

Nix: The Breaking Point
I don't think so. The article is probably intended for the Nix community, so the author doesn't need to convince HN that something is going on. If as an outsider you are interested then you need to look into it yourself, the community has no obligation to make their internal conflicts legible to the outside world.
As an outsider myself, it certainly looks like something is going on as more than 20 Nixpkg maintainers left in a week: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues?q=label%3A%228.has%3...

3rd Edition of Programming: Principles and Practice Using C++ by Stroustrup

NixOS Is Not Reproducible
Yes, Nix doesn't actually ensure that the builds are deterministic. In fact it works just fine if they aren't. There are packages in nixpkgs that aren't reproducible: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aiss...

The xz attack shell script
I'm not familiar with Bazel, but Nix in it's current form wouldn't have solved this attack. First of all, the standard mkDerivation function calls the same configure; make; make install process that made this attack possible. Nixpkgs regularly pulls in external resources (fetchUrl and friends) that are equally vulnerable to a poisoned release tarball. Checkout the comment on the current xz entry in nixpkgs https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/tools/comp...

Debian Git Monorepo
NixOS uses a monorepo and I think everyone's love it.
I love being able to easily grep through all the packages source code and there's regularly PRs that harmonizes conventions across many packages.
Nixpkgs doesn't include the packaged software source code, so it's a lot more practical than what Debian is doing.
