20 Years of Nix
> I tried to install NixOS using the live cd last week in a Hyper-V VM, but it failed to get anywhere due to SquashFS errors.
Heh, that reminds me of installing NixOS back around 2014. I didn't have any way to physically boot off the install CD; so I ran it in qemu, using my real /dev/sda as the "virtual" hard drive (which I'd already partitioned). Thankfully there was no interference with the host system (Trisquel).
I'm still using (and evolved version of) the same NixOS config to this day; it still contains the following comment ( https://github.com/Warbo/nix-config/blob/master/nixos/machin... ):

The Curse of NixOS
Where nixpkgs2105 is a pinned revision of the Nixpkgs repo, defined in another overlay. My current Nix config has pinned Nixpkgs versions going back to 2016. For example, here's a bunch of such overrides:
https://github.com/Warbo/nix-config/blob/master/overrides/fi...
At the moment I'm using niv to manage the pinned Nixpkgs versions (the 'repoXXXX' entries):

Ask HN: Best Alternative to Homebrew in 2021?
`nix-env` is an imperative command, whilst writing a .nix file is declarative. In particular, the latter can be managed using git.
For example, here's a system-wide config dating back to Feb 2015: https://github.com/Warbo/nix-config
(That's actually a NixOS config; my macOS config is in a private repo, but it imports that repo to define its "one big system package")

> I'd like to see other configs from nix users too if you're still here!
Here's mine https://github.com/warbo/nix-config
I've used Nix/NixOS for about 8 years, but not delved into flakes yet.

Test Driving a Rails API - Part One
A running Rails application needs a database to connect to. You may already have your database of choice installed, but if not, I recommend PostgreSQL, or Postgres for short. On a Mac, probably the easiest way to install it is with Posrgres.app. Another option, the one I prefer, is to use Homebrew. With Homebrew installed, this command will install PostgreSQL version 16 along with libpq:

Building Secure Neon-Infused Web Apps with Auth0, Express, and EJS
There are two ways to connect with the Postgres database which can be in the terminal or using a Postgres GUI client app like DBeaver. But first, download the PostgreSQL installer for macOS or Windows, depending on your OS. The setup and installation come with the psql command, a tool shipped with Postgres that allows you to communicate with Postgres through the command line.

6a. Even stricter option is an "append-only" aka "timeseries" schema, which I highly recommend. Can't remember the last time I didn't use one.
