I have (at least) three weird superpowers:
- I take umbrage at having to repeatedly solve the same problem with brute-force or suboptimal tools.
- Once I take umbrage, I have to avoid or fix the cause.
- Once I commit to fixing the cause, I am a force of nature.
The top few things on my stack at the moment are:
- Lack of Nix-ecosystem support for packaging and interconnecting shell modules (see resholve)
- Nix installer issues
- ๐ Help update the macOS installer for Catalina (https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/3212)
- ๐ Update the macOS installer for Big Sur (https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/3996)
- Sanding down the sharp edges around FileVault caused by the read-only root on macOS Catalina+ (https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/4181)
- support --uninstall
- support curing problems with active installs
- Rough edges on shell history (see shell-hag)
- Poor composability of bash profile/prompt modules (see shellswain)
Multi-year yak shaves are eventually rewarding, but the recognition and validation of your sponsorship will go a long way towards keeping my tank topped up.
