Me too. I’ve known about Nix for a long time but resisted the idea of learning a new language just to manage my system. In retrospect, it would have been worth it, but now I don’t have to.
And I understand because it took me TEN YEARS to come around.
I worked with a very forward-thinking functional programmer around 2012 and even back then she was raving about it. And of course, people thought she was a raving lunatic.
I give her credit to this day. It took me having one too many problems caused by NOT using Nix, to cause me to finally dive in.
And there's no going back. Which is what happens with the best technologies.
