+"title: Using NixOS as an stateless workstation\n"
+"date: 2019-06-02\n"
+"layout: post\n"
+"lang: en\n"
+"ref: using-nixos-as-an-stateless-workstation"
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"Last week[^last-week] I changed back to an old[^old-computer] Samsung "
+"laptop, and installed [NixOS](https://nixos.org/) on it."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"After using NixOS on another laptop for around two years, I wanted verify "
+"how reproducible was my desktop environment, and how far does NixOS actually"
+" can go on recreating my whole OS from my configuration files and personal "
+"data. I gravitated towards NixOS after trying (and failing) to create an "
+"`install.sh` script that would imperatively install and configure my whole "
+"OS using apt-get. When I found a GNU/Linux distribution that was built on "
+"top of the idea of declaratively specifying the whole OS I was automatically"
+" convinced[^convinced-by-declarative-aspect]."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"I was impressed. Even though I've been experiencing the benefits of Nix "
+"isolation daily, I always felt skeptical that something would be missing, "
+"because the devil is always on the details. But the result was much better "
+"than expected!"
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid "There were only 2 missing configurations:"
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid "tap-to-click on the touchpad wasn't enabled by default;"
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"the default theme from the gnome-terminal is \"Black on white\" instead of "
+"\"White on black\"."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid "That's all."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"I haven't checked if I can configure those in NixOS GNOME module, but I "
+"guess both are scriptable and could be set in a fictional `setup.sh` run."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid "This makes me really happy, actually. More happy than I anticipated."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"Having such a powerful declarative OS makes me feel like my data is the "
+"really important stuff (as it should be), and I can interact with it on any "
+"workstation. All I need is an internet connection and a few hours to "
+"download everything. It feels like my physical workstation and the installed"
+" OS are serving me and my data, instead of me feeling as hostage to the "
+"specific OS configuration at the moment. Having a few backup copies of "
+"everything important extends such peacefulness."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"After this positive experience with recreating my OS from simple Nix "
+"expressions, I started to wonder how far I could go with this, and started "
+"considering other areas of improvements:"
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid "First run on a fresh NixOS installation"
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"Right now the initial setup relies on non-declarative manual tasks, like "
+"decrypting some credentials, or manually downloading **this** git repository"
+" with specific configurations before **that** one."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"I wonder what some areas of improvements are on this topic, and if investing"
+" on it is worth it (both time-wise and happiness-wise)."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid "Emacs"
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"Right now I'm using the [Spacemacs](http://spacemacs.org/), which is a "
+"community package curation and configuration on top of "
+"[Emacs](https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/)."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"Spacemacs does support the notion of "
+"[layers](http://spacemacs.org/doc/LAYERS.html), which you can declaratively "
+"specify and let Spacemacs do the rest."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"However this solution isn't nearly as robust as Nix: being purely "
+"functional, Nix does describe everything required to build a derivation, and"
+" knows how to do so. Spacemacs it closer to more traditional package "
+"managers: even though the layers list is declarative, the installation is "
+"still very much imperative. I've had trouble with Spacemacs not behaving the"
+" same on different computers, both with identical configurations, only "
+"brought to convergence back again after a `git clean -fdx` inside "
+"`~/.emacs.d/`."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"The ideal solution would be managing Emacs packages with Nix itself. After a"
+" quick search I did found that [there is support for Emacs packages in "
+"Nix](https://nixos.org/nixos/manual/index.html#module-services-emacs-adding-"
+"packages). So far I was only aware of [Guix support for Emacs "
+"packages](https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Application-"
+"Setup.html#Emacs-Packages)."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"This isn't a trivial change because Spacemacs does include extra curation "
+"and configuration on top of Emacs packages. I'm not sure the best way to "
+"improve this right now."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid "myrepos"
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"I'm using [myrepos](https://myrepos.branchable.com/) to manage all my git "
+"repositories, and the general rule I apply is to add any repository specific"
+" configuration in myrepos' `checkout` phase:"
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"This way when I clone this repo again the email sending is already pre-"
+"configured."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"This works well enough, but the solution is too imperative, and my "
+"`checkout` phases tend to become brittle over time if not enough care is "
+"taken."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid "GNU Stow"
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"For my home profile and personal configuration I already have a few dozens "
+"of symlinks that I manage manually. This has worked so far, but the solution"
+" is sometimes fragile and [not declarative at "
+"all](https://git.sr.ht/~euandreh/dotfiles/tree/316939aa215181b1d22b69e94241eef757add98d/bash/symlinks.sh#L14-75)."
+" I wonder if something like [GNU Stow](https://www.gnu.org/software/stow/) "
+"can help me simplify this."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid "Conclusion"
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"I'm really satisfied with NixOS, and I intend to keep using it. If what I've"
+" said interests you, maybe try tinkering with the [Nix package "
+"manager](https://nixos.org/nix/) (not the whole NixOS) on your current "
+"distribution (it can live alongside any other package manager)."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"If you have experience with declarative Emacs package managements, GNU Stow "
+"or any similar tool, *etc.*, [I'd like some tips](mailto:{{ "
+"site.author.email }}). If you don't have any experience at all, I'd still "
+"love to hear from you."

+"[^last-week]: \"Last week\" as of the start of this writing, so around the "
+"end of May 2019."

+msgid ""
+"[^old-computer]: I was using a 32GB RAM, i7 and 250GB SSD Samsung laptop. "
+"The switch was back to a 8GB RAM, i5 and 500GB HDD Dell laptop. The biggest "
+"difference I noticed was on faster memory, both RAM availability and the "
+"disk speed, but I had 250GB less local storage space."
+msgstr ""
+
+msgid ""
+"[^convinced-by-declarative-aspect]: The declarative configuration aspect is "
+"something that I now completely take for granted, and wouldn't consider "
+"using something which isn't declarative. A good metric to show this is me "
+"realising that I can't pinpoint the moment when I decided to switch to "
+"NixOS. It's like I had a distant past when this wasn't true."
