Strange start to my Monday where I spent ~2h debugging my hanging NixOS. Strangely I'm not sure I made any changes to my configuration to trigger this, and I was finding this hard to reproduce: - graphical X sessions hung (once when opening Chrome) - TTYs hung (during `nix-build` and `rebuild-system`) Per kn's recommendations whenever a system is hanging, see if it's reachable over the network (e.g. SSH). Since I didn't have my laptop, I downloaded Termius on my iPhone, which I used to mosh into ava, which is a surprisingly nice UX. I suspect my machine (with only 8GB of RAM) was OOMing, but I'm not certain. Thanks to grfn I installed `earlyoom`. For more commentary, check-out Profpatsch's blog post about this: https://profpatsch.de/notes/preventing-oom What went well: - Thankfully I installed a Matrix client on my iPhone last week, which allowed me to troubleshoot with the #tvl folks AIs: - I'd like some instrumentation like Prometheus, Loki (`journald`, `dmesg`), so that I can accumulate troubleshooting information that isn't destroyed when I reboot my machine (which I did 1/2-dozen times today). - Consider adding `git` metadata to `system.nixos.label` to get more useful information in a GRUB/EFI context. More unknowns: - Why can't I switch back to EFI (from GRUB) for my bootloader?

depot
This repository is the monorepo for the community around The Virus Lounge, containing our personal tools and infrastructure. Everything in here is built using Nix.
A large portion of the software here is very self-referential, meaning that it exists to sustain the operation of the repository. This is the case because we partially see this as an experiment in tooling for monorepos.
Highlights
Services
-
Source code is available primarily through Sourcegraph on cs.tvl.fyi, where it is searchable and even semantically indexed. A lower-tech view of the repository is also available via cgit on code.tvl.fyi.
The repository can be cloned using
git
fromhttps://cl.tvl.fyi/depot
. -
All code in the depot, with the exception of code that is checked in to individual
//users
folders, needs to be reviewed. We use Gerrit on cl.tvl.fyi for this. -
Issues are tracked via our own issue tracker on b.tvl.fyi. Its source code lives at
//web/panettone/
. -
Smaller todo-list entries which do not warrant a separate issue are listed at todo.tvl.fyi.
-
We use Buildkite for CI. Recent builds are listed on tvl.fyi/builds and pipelines are configured dynamically via
//ops/pipelines
. -
A search service that makes TVL services available via textual shortcuts is available: atward
All services that we host are deployed on NixOS machines that we manage. Their
configuration is tracked in //ops/{modules,machines}
.
