pellets: manage your packages with a configuration file
Fair enough. I've also had a couple of programs which weren't packaged already, fortunately it's quite easy to do so most of the time (or to just fall back to a distrobox container or flatpak in the worst case). If you decide to try it out, nix-1p and Nix Pills were great resources for me to get familiar with Nix and NixOS in a short time-span.

Why the Windows Registry sucks technically (2010)
Wouldn't say there's a steep learning curve for the language itself, it's pretty easy to get a grasp around it imo. Here's a helpful page I used to quickly get familiar with the language: https://github.com/tazjin/nix-1p
What's rather messy about Nix is nixpkgs with its helper functions all over the place alongside pretty shallow / non-existent documentation (which is unrelated to the language). Thankfully they've started to work on that recently: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/documentation-team-flattening-...

Nix is the ultimate DevOps toolkit
I wrote a language tutorial for only the language a while back, and have gotten the feedback that it has helped a lot of people - maybe it'd clear something up for you: https://github.com/tazjin/nix-1p

Getting help is hard
For Nix language things I really like this page: https://github.com/tazjin/nix-1p

Why you should probably be using SQLite
- Use clone file to duplicate the cached data directory to give to individual tests.
One thing I'd like to pursue is to store the Postgres data dir in SQLite [1]. Then, I can reset the "file system" using SQL after each test instead of copying the entire datadir.

SQLite: 35% Faster Than the Filesystem
Not sure about compression but somebody could probably hack it in an afternoon using this:
https://github.com/guardianproject/libsqlfs
or something similar to check the potential for speed up.

- FUSE based Posix style file system on top of an SQLite database

Why the Windows Registry sucks technically (2010)
Maybe there isn't a database engine that explicitly supports file system daya structures, but you could implement a filesystem in the application layer using SQLite as a storage mechanism.
Here's an example of someone doing that very thing.
- Is it time to remove reiserfs?
- SQLite Archive Files

A Future for SQL on the Web
now let's see what it takes to make absurd-fs, where we use https://github.com/guardianproject/libsqlfs to make a filesystem on top of sqlite on top of the File System Access API.
gotta keep ourselves fully looped. ⥀
