2023 Nix Developer Dialogues
Thomas Bereknyei & John Ericson – Unexplored superpowers: Nix behind the scenes
Tom (@tomberek) has driven many developments around outreach, user experience, and major technical decisions in the past, and continues to be a force of nature when it comes to helping people to get together and make progress on seemingly intractable problems. John (@Ericson2314) is known for his additions to cross-compilation facilities in Nixpkgs, and contributed by far the largest amount of changes to the Nix C++ code base in recent times. Both have been active in the Nix community for many years, and are members of the Nix maintainer team. In this episode of the 2023 Nix Developer Dialogues, we’ll talk about the cornerstone of the ecosystem, teamwork and timelines, stability and innovation, and conquering the world.
