Is Platform Engineering just DevOps with a new badge?

Shweta Vohra shares a surprising reaction from a recent talk: 70% of the room said Platform Engineering is simply a rename of DevOps.

🔹 2010: "We need DevOps"
🔹 2018: "We need Kubernetes"
🔹 2026: "We need Platform Engineering"

💡 The Bottom Line: The label matters far less than the outcome. Focus on self-service capabilities, clear architectural boundaries, and reducing cognitive load for better Developer Experience - not just collecting new titles.

Two years ago, the Mac was the awkward special case for Linux builds. Today, my MacBook outbuilds my Linux machines. 🤯

We just got merged a new Linux builder backend into nixpkgs that runs on Apple's Virtualization.framework and exposes Rosetta to the guest VM.

The results on Apple Silicon:

⚡ x86_64-linux builds are 2.5x faster than QEMU emulation
📦 Builder closure shrinks from 3.2 GiB to 1.2 GiB
🚀 VM boots 2x faster
🧪 Nested virtualization: NixOS integration tests with /dev/kvm now run on your Mac (M3+)

And the best part: it's a drop-in replacement. If you use nix-darwin, switching is literally two extra lines in your configuration.

Under the hood is vzvm, a purpose-built VM monitor in ~1000 lines of Swift with zero external dependencies. No bootloader, no disk image juggling, no network configuration. It does exactly what a Nix remote builder needs — and nothing else.

The fun part of the story: building x86_64 NixOS systems and deploying them remotely is now faster from my Mac than from my aarch64 Linux machines, because Rosetta beats QEMU's software emulation hands down.

Full write-up with setup instructions, benchmarks, and how it works under the hood:
