Day 0 magic, @flox.dev (with sprinkles of @nixos.org) on stage at NVIDIA's GTC!
Many. Many. Launches coming out today & this week 💜 💚
Lots of love to Greg Estes & Josh Minney for making it happen!
These two :)
Next time. 😜
I was crushed. @kelseyhightower.com.
We went "Trash Pandas" against "Fallout" precon war...
@magic.wizards.com how many board wipes did you put in the Ceaser Precon!?
#thanks @flox.dev
600+ builders. @kelseyhightower.com & I. Tomorrow morning at #planetnix.
We are tackling the main question: Why Nix, and why now?
Because AI just 100x'd our abilities and speed but also the complexity of our software stack.
Nix is the deterministic rails for the AI era.
Joining in from the road!
"Built to Last" - @flox.dev
Thrilled to share that Flox has raised our Series B!
We’re on a mission to make software reproducible, portable & secure by default, a foundation teams can build on for decades.
This is only the beginning. #nixos
Anyone tinkering with Agents or GPUs this week? 🤖

A huge thank you to everyone who took part!
Paris Baguette if you're around the bay area!
Everytime I think about this layering I think about the best type of cake. ;)
Jokes aside, happy to grab some time and chat through things!
Nix represents a different way of building reproducible software, but Nix has its own challenges, and in many ways Docker already won.
So what hope is there for something like Nix in the long run? Come find out tomorrow at the @flox.dev virtual event.
@flox.dev has hit some milestones & we need community 🤗 help + 💗 love! I'm looking for a stellar product leader to partner with me on our mission to drive a generational software shift with the best open source out there (unbiased) @nixos.bsky.social!
The most magical moment in the Nix Brix creation process is after you pour the top coat. Looook at these beauties!
See you at @planetnix.bsky.social soon!!

Feeling like we're about to get a perf review for finishing the first quarter of the 21st century... There's a lot of announcements coming for #nixos and @flox.dev but first comes a shout out. Thank you to everyone who made this year possible. Community before code.
