The CppNix team has discovered today that the #NixOS infra has actually been running on Lix for a few months because their software is too shit to reliably function on large-scale critical infrastructure (e.g. the build farm supporting NixOS). Like, it just segfaults or has protocol incompatibility regressions every version.
It's been really interesting watching their indignation at having actual competition doing their job better than they do it themselves.
