    Yup, figuring out how to install gcc 10 was a pain. Turns out I needed stdenvgcc10, but how would I have known that without reading like the entirety of nix pills? I don’t want to read a manual for 2 hours to figure out how to do something basic. Not to mention nix pills is SO dense that as someone who can’t learn from textbooks, its impossible.




















  • I don’t think it’ll be until I can have an appstore that rewrites my config with a new generation. Apps on my phone are much more spontaneous because its on me all the time and so much more general purpose. I can’t imagine having to install uber and having to edit a config and waiting for it to evaluate derivation when I need to call a taxi right then and there.
