 &lt;p>I&amp;rsquo;ve used Chef, Ansible, shell scripts, manually cowboy sysadmin knob twiddling, CloudFormation, Terraform and other means of wrangling the computers and software I manage and code &amp;gt; manual but NixOS takes it to the next level with a declarative &amp;gt; imperative approach to configuring a Linux box.&lt;/p>
 &lt;p>It&amp;rsquo;s not all roses. I&amp;rsquo;m going to have to invest real time before I&amp;rsquo;ll have wrapped my head around the Nix language&amp;hellip;and without that I&amp;rsquo;m groping around in the dark at times. I&amp;rsquo;ve already bruised my head on Haskell, another functional language, so hopefully it&amp;rsquo;s not too bad. A lot has changed over the years and plenty of example configs and ideas and docs that were right before are outdated now, so&amp;hellip;more groping.&lt;/p>
 &lt;p>But being able to build my workstation image and roll back and forward is a revelation. Access to the &lt;a href="https://repology.org/repositories/graphs">hugest library&lt;/a> of high quality, well maintained packages in the world of Linux/Unix, bar none, is awesome (yay I have Dwarf Fortress working!). Putting my config in source control with a real hope of being able to build a new workstation with everything ready to go, with minimal manual config for Gnome, Firefox, the apps to install, and my rotated monitors promised to save from me lots of grief going forward.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Cheese Fondue</title><link>https://ggr.com/cheese-fondue.html</link><pubDate>Wed, 21 Jun 2023 23:01:03 -0700</pubDate><guid>https://ggr.com/cheese-fondue.html</guid><description>&lt;p>Makes 2 servings.&lt;/p>

-<a href=https://ggr.com/tags/iwanttoworkatea.com.html>#IWantToWorkAtEA.com</a></div><p>So I emailed Kana Ryan and she forwarded me with a nice intro to Lisa Bell. I was getting all excited that I had a good intro into the hiring manager until I emailed Toby and he told me Lisa is in HR (and therefore a gatekeeper). I did think it a bit odd that the only credit I could find for her was a &ldquo;thank you&rdquo; on the Sims Online. Heh. Hopefully shell realize what a catch I am ;)I&rsquo;ll see if I can convince her by giving her a phone call or two. I&rsquo;m wondering if I should just take a stab at who the hiring manager might be and email some of the producers on the credits for the other SimCity games&mldr;</p></div></body></html>
+<a href=https://ggr.com/tags/iwanttoworkatea.com.html>#IWantToWorkAtEA.com</a></div><p>Just got off the phone with Lisa Bell. The scoop is that they already have someone internal for the position&ndash;the post to EA jobs was really more of a formality. But, even though they dont have other production positions open, Lisa said she liked my resume and would like to speak to me in December. Were scheduled for a phone call 1st week of December. Pretty cool. Glad I made that phone call. :)</p></div></body></html>
