Ask HN: How do you sync your computers development configurations/environment?
home-manager and nix: https://github.com/legendofmiracles/dotnix
This allows me to abstract logic easily, have it all modular and have everything be nix.

How do you ensure the longevity of your customized Linux setup
If you’re interested and want to see more, here’s my massive configuration.

Raspberry Pi config for all things Internet
https://github.com/LegendOfMiracles/dotnix/tree/master/hosts... (bottom lines describe the remote build logic) this is the actual config of the pi... One other file also gets sourced: the defaults-nixos file in the root of the repo. And the distributed build host nix file describes creating a build user on my main machine.
The setup is mostly mirrored from https://sgt.hootr.club/molten-matter/nix-distributed-builds/

Can I see what packages have been updated?
Config is somewhere in HM/fish.nix :p https://github.com/legendofmiracles/dotnix

Why is the documentation... nowhere to be found?!
For me, https://search.nixos.org/ is a better aid than the wiki. Often the right keyword in the NixOS packages or modules search will lead me right to the obvious and simple answer that I couldn't find elsewhere.

Nix packages security, safety, and privacy
Does https://search.nixos.org/ pull from nixpkgs, the Nix User Repository, or both?

What is the difference between:
Just go to search.nixos.org, open the option you would like to see more of, and click on the link behind "Declared in".

Where to find SAR in the package manager?
I've done a nix-env query, and checked in https://search.nixos.org but can't seem to find any SAR package, nor any google search that gave any hints to see if it might be part of another system utility package...

My First Impressions of Nix
If you want to install a package, search for it at https://search.nixos.org
The gnome system monitor is gnome.gnome-system-monitor for example https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=23.05&show=gnome.g...

Thinking about to switch from Fedora Sliverblue to NixOS with following use case…
Idk about ec_sys, I couldn't find it on search.nixos.org, but since it's a kernel module it might just come with the kernel idk.

How do you quickly browse the source of a flake input
I rarely think to look at flakes by their source, actually. I have a Nixpkgs clone that I jump into for anything super ad-hoc but most of the time I'm just doing REPL, :lf ./. and mashing tab-completion. That's usually to make sure the thing I'm after exists in one of the large package sets like node, vimPlugins, or similar, and that I got the name right - which could probably be answered just as easily with https://search.nixos.org/ .
