#reproducible — Public Fediverse posts

Hi All Nix, Guix users

I want a better term to address #nix, #guix, #lix etc
Coz whenever I mention something about Nix's benefits etc , I also mean guix, lix too
So I'm hunting for a better term to address things in common.
Coz Nix(and it's family is),
#Declarative, #idempotent, #bit2bit #reproducible, #Immutable, #hermetic, #provenant, pure #functional, #incremental, #Atomic etc etc

The terms I came up with are
#Congruent eng, #Invariant eng, Pure Functional Eng.

#nixos #guixos

Listening to Bernhard M. Wiedemann talking at #oSC26 about:

What happened with #reproducible #builds in @opensuse and #SLES

https://events.opensuse.org/conferences/oSC26/program/proposals/5089

Once upon a time the syslog-ng project also did a couple of changes to allow reproducible builds (no timestamp or git hash).

I take that back, a (ideally #bootstrappable) #reproducible declaratively defined OS distribution like #guix is the best means to maintain a global perspective of your OS. But unless you are a minimal uptime warrior that keeps everything in a /tmp-like directory that is flushed on shutdown, you still need email to keep track with whats going on! (and you can't convince me that setting up prometheus compares to working directly with the plumbing! at least for monolithic desktop user systems)

Wanted to share that [Stageˣ] is now full source bootstrapped, 100% reproducible, signed by 2-3 independent reviewers/reproducers on every release, and can build itself.

It can be the base of reproducible build containers for most projects written in c, c++, nodejs, go, php, ocaml, rust, or zig.

I am thankful for the efforts of our team, and the patient advice and tireless debugging of people in the #reproducible-builds and #bootstrappable projects <3
