Going declarative on macOS with Nix and Nix-Darwin
Here’s Mitchell Hashimoto (founder of HashiCorp) setup config.

Does it make sense to deep dive into NixOs without proper knowledge of nix itself?
In my case, I started by installing the NixOS using the Gnome Installer on VmWare fusion, and then modified it using the example config from mitchellh as a guide. Actually entering the configuration yourself definitely helps with learning.

Question about managing development environments in NixOS
I have a NixOS dev environment in a VM which I built based on https://github.com/mitchellh/nixos-config. Similar to that setup, I use Flakes for my main configuration, and use home-manager to install + configure dev tools that I want available across multiple projects

Is it possible to use nix like pacstrap?
Yes, maybe not as easily. Check my setup https://github.com/kohlerm/nixos-config which I forked from https://github.com/mitchellh/nixos-config a while ago

Anyone using a linux vm on mac for doing development? What are your thought on this?
I'm developing mostly using console applications like vim so I don't need GUI apps for what I'm doing and this made me wonder if it's not better to simply spin a Linux VM inside my macOS to do my development. Something like this: https://github.com/mitchellh/nixos-config (this guy is one of the founders of Hashicorp)

Ask HN: How ready for daily driving is Asahi Linux?
One of the most popular NixOS configs on GitHub does this https://github.com/mitchellh/nixos-config
The README describes the experience, though the author takes the approach of using the VM mainly for terminal-based stuff.

Using Nix on macOS
This post focused solely on the Nix package manager and Nix packages - for anyone that uses MacOS but is interesting in trying NixOS (or using it within a VM in MacOS), I definitely recommend Mitchell Hashimoto's NixOS repo: https://github.com/mitchellh/nixos-config
Honestly, doing that may be easier and a better option than using Nix packages in MacOS.

I use NixOS for my home-server, and you should too!
As we covered in my last post, NixOS is a amazing Linux distribution for creating stable and declared environments. Now while this is amazing for a desktop setup, it is also perfect for a home-server or home-lab.

Tvix – A New Implementation of Nix
(Nix itself is slowly chugging along with Windows via MinGW - https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nix-on-windows/1113/108 and https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/1320 , for example.)

Colima k8s nix setup
Nix is a cross-platform package manager. It uses the nix programming language. Nix and NixOs are often used in the same context, but while the first is a package manager, the latter is a linux distribution based on nix.

NixOs - Your portable dev enviroment
Today I want to talk to you about Nixos. What is it? Nixos is a declarative and reproducible OS, partly taking the words used on their own page. What does that mean?

Nix – A One Pager
Software developers often want to customize:
1. their home environments: for packages (some reach for brew on MacOS) and configurations (dotfiles, and some reach for stow).
2. their development shells: for build dependencies (compilers, SDKs, libraries), tools (LSP, linters, formatters, debuggers), and services (runtime, database). Some reach for devcontainers here.
3. or even their operating systems: for development, for CI, for deployment, or for personal use.
Nix provision all of the above in the same language, with Nixpkgs, NixOS, home-manager, and devShells such as https://devenv.sh/. What's more, Nix is (https://nixos.org/):
- reproducible: what works on your dev machine also works in CI in prod,
- declarative: you version control and review your configurations and infrastructure as code, at a reasonable level of abstraction,
- reliable: all changes are atomic with easy roll back.

Tools for Linux Distro Hoppers
Hopping from one distro to another with a different package manager might require some time to adapt. Using a package manager that can be installed on most distro is one way to help you get to work faster. Flatpak is one of them; other alternative are Snap, Nix or Homebrew. Flatpak is a good starter, and if you have a bunch of free time, I suggest trying Nix.

Ask HN: Could Nix make crypto mining more efficient?
- it reduces bloat, because you can generate an environment or OS image with only the software needed to run a specific program or service
My guess is that a big efficiency gain would come from the second point, because you don't waste CPU on code that you don't use.
Does this make sense? Has anyone explored this?

Go + Hypermedia - A Learning Journey (Part 1)
1) Setting up the development environment - I currently use devcontainers for most things, but may also dig into nix -> isolated, portable, repeatable development environment 2) Exploring Echo - understand routing, requests, response, etc. 3) Incorporate Templ - integration with Echo, template composition, etc. 4) Integrating TailwindCSS - config for use with Echo/Templ, development cycle, deployment, etc. 5) Add in HTMX - endpoints, template structure, concepts, etc. 6) hyperscript for interactivity - client side interactivity
