  1. Was just checking out some tvix talks, the tvix-store is certainly attractive with even the replit blog mentioning about 90% storage reduction in cache storage. Even devenv switched to tvix.

    But I couldn't see any docs on how can I start using it in my nixos or atleast for nix shells, etc

    Am I missing out something or any views on this would help me

  5. Really sad the that #devenv 2.0 version got so much worse. :( I get port-shifts over and over again when restarting it and the new process-manager overview is hardly usable for me. Wondering if I should go back to 1.9 or if there even is a fork?

  6. #Microsoft #VisualStudio 2026 #DevEnv
    fails to remote-attach, and crashes with 0xC0000005. Great job.

  7. 2 is out and it is impressive! 😁 Great work team. Going to ride through in some personal projects to test out.

    I been moving to flake parts all my things, but still. Would like these dev shell benefits. 😎

  8. @upmultimedia you might want to check out #Nix and/or #devenv, both of which allow you to get reproducible and isolated environments. The learning curve might be a bit steep but the experience is way better than what you get with containers.

  9. Started my new pet project on devenv.sh. Lord, what a relieve compared to any Docker/Vagrant/Kubernetes dev setup I've seen, yet. #devenv

  10. #TIL about one of the most useful tools for #nix and #nixos - github.com/samestep/npc

    It is basically a git bisect but for nix channels. It also has great flake support. Just run npc bisect until you find the #nixpkgs version that works and it will automatically fix it in your flake.lock.

    The issue for me was #devenv package being broken in the latest nixpkgs-stable release (github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issue). It turns out ghidra build results are not used to determine the package status and the possibility to commit the new version to master branch.

    I think this tool is a game changer, especially if you use nixpkgs-unstable

    #npc #nixpkgs

  11. Profile control in is kind of outstanding. I have this very problem with monorepo dev work. Not all the time you need to load everything under the sun. 😅

    Going to see how to fit on these very repos. 😁

  12. Sehr schöner Abend bei einer tollen Location mit Leuten auf die ich mich gefreut habe und tollen Vorträgen. Danke Euch @sparsick , Andreas Malerz, @sormuras, Stephan Kaps und der cronn GmbH.

  13. I'm still confused about the versioning in #devenv: nixos unstable has bun at 1.2.19. Nixos 25.05 has it on 1.2.13. Devenv's fork of nixpkgs? 1.2.10.

    I suppose that the fork is solving _some_ problems, but I cant' remember a time when I haven't stumbled on a weird package issue only because devenv is lagging behind so hard and I forgot to reset it to upstream immediately after creation.

  19. Some more prodding (I should really prod more before ranting...) uncovered that emacs can't load my #devenv's generated direnv. Fantastic.

    At least I have some idea about what's broken, now.

  20. Not really surprising though I guess, its the corporate way of doing things.
    You do something shady, get called out, apologize in an hand wavy, noncommittal kind of way, promise to do better, and then instead of doing anything wait until it blows over and quietly bring the thing back.
    It's really kind of a classic.

  21. I guess its totally cool that #devenv 1.5 was pushed into #nixpkgs, bringing back both telemetry and source code upload for AI training, and neither @domenkozar's blog post nor the release announcement mentions anything about that, right?

  22. I’ve just been told about #Devbox and #devenv. Are they as cool as they claim to be? Looks like they both bring everything I could’ve wanted for my development environments.

  27. I though it had been a while without any #NixOS drama, but of course the universe provides.

    Guess what, telemetry in #devenv is coming back. Again, it's Opt-Out, not Opt-In.
    The difference: this time that work is sponsored by the NixOS Foundation.

    Brought to you by @domenkozar of course.

  28. If I ever recommended devenv to you: I'm sorry!
    The new version (1.4) has a function which will silently upload your entire repo you call it on to their servers to do whatever with it – they call it telemetry, not exfiltration.
    If you're on nixos stable you didn't get 1.4 yet, so you can fix your machine before it gets impacted.

    My new recommendation is to uninstall devenv, delete your devenv configs, use anything else.
    They are saying they will roll that change back, but the tool is burned, there's no recovering from this.

  29. @domenkozar
    Tell you what: you publish a blog post on devenv.sh owning up to what happened, and I'll apologize for assuming malicious intent.

  30. I just discovered that #PHPStorm doesn’t really work with tools like #direnv or #nixshell.
    This makes me a bit sad because it might prevent us from using #Nix and #devenv for our new development setup.

  41. Currently, have my #devenv setup on their own #Tailscale network. It is nice how easy it is to separate these networks. The wint14-devsys is actually WSL2 running my container image. This way I don't have to share machines into my personal #tailnet, but I could. There is a mix of #gitpod and #csb used. #codespace is in my opinion a little too slow for my region.
