Fun story. I gave Nix a try - my standard 2 weeks - and realized it's not solving my problems, while creating a set of different ones. Ironically, `dock` was conceived while I was experimenting with Nix. But Nix... and Docker, in part... They are manifestations of this need for certainty we humans have, it doesn't lead us to good places :)

I don't quite understand, can you elaborate?
I'm a nix user who'd like to see others be able to get as much value out of it as I do.
