One could argue that being a consumer of one's public contract helps keep its quality high?

Am I missing another aspect of this tension?

Learn some Japanese. Become less afraid of falling.

The animation uses what looks like an airliner, and shows the jamming as a sort of bubble that directly sends the airplane into a crash.

I found it disturbing when I looked at it, it does not represent the story well, and I think that's irresponsible.

Even so, it's not good to spin this event into something it isn't. The video is misleading and I felt manipulated by it.

This was magical to me. My "mentor" was able to build tiny butterfly-like contraptions with four flapping wings, and many other flying machines of different kinds.

Maybe this is interesting to your family as well!

For those not in in that niche, the goal is to set up a Linux desktop or Steam Deck for retro (and not so retro) video game emulation, so you just drop in your ROMs, open a frontend via Steam, and play your games.

I would suggest Home Manager though, which will let you set up your environment just as well and is very portable, while still affording you a mainstream host system of the company's choice.

There is no format here, just a filename.

Also, Anthropic/Claude is a glaring omission. I suppose people can use symbolic links if they want to and point CLAUDE.md at AGENTS.md.

I've realized most of my blog post is not really about NixOS, it's just about this particular TUXEDO laptop requiring special tweaks to work properly. I've set up Debian 13 with Nix (plus Home Manager) in a VM to try it out and have realized that on the real laptop I would need to perform the same tweaks: install special drivers, install the TUXEDO Control Center (albeit using a supported .deb), and add those same kernel params. The only "care-free" option would be using TUXEDO OS, which I could explore. I've run NixOS on e.g. an AMD ThinkPad T14 and it was seamless, with no tweaks needed.

I suppose using something other than NixOS would indeed make some things easier (in my case Vanta, `pinentry` programs, Playwright and Cypress) and would perhaps let me live a more hands-off experience. I currently run `nix flake update` on my system way too often... but other than that, NixOS is not really getting in the way, at least as far as using this laptop goes.

SQLx comes close to this btw.

The motherboard was a huge pain to work with, and I had to return two (!) units; I made the third one work. The first two would not boot in the same configuration.

I set up the box with NixOS. Here is its flake: https://github.com/fnune/bilbo

The NixOS experience was fun!
