Re:macOS Nix setup: an alternative to Homebrew (2020)

Cool response. In your opinion, what advantage does Macports offer over homebrew? I'll admit When I read tutorials on new frameworks, tools, etc, they almost always assume everyone uses homebrew. So (perhaps lazily) I just did the same.

Interesting read as I am a huge OSX and CLI fan. Thanks for that! I too am worried by the root file system "security enhancements" in recent versions of OSX that make it harder and harder for me to do my job (develop website backends).
However I may wait to try Nix until it has better support for my primary tools (mainly php and ruby based websites) ... because I LOVE the simplicity of homebrew. And if there are any homebrew developers reading this, I frickin' love you guys. You make everything I need to do extremely easy.

Congratulations on your stoic decision to become a prison guard. I am sure you will show them how it's done!

Reading the article... the guy makes it sound like he was in jail for some victimless crime or something. But upon further research he was caught red-handed committing theft and fraud. The way he uses his race and profession as some sort of crutch and excuse is just embarrassing for all humans. Cry me a river! People like him are the reason jails exist in the first place. Does he even get that?
