This post was commissioned by Graham Christensen as part of the Great Slate fundraiser. Thank you! I wanted to help out the Great Slate fundraiser and donated two technical essays of the purchaser’s choice. Graham bought one and asked for Something that has to do with Nix or NixOS This was a bit of a challenge, given that I didn’t even know what Nix was. I had never used it and still haven’t, nor can I use it for the near future, because my only computer right now is a Windows box.
