jade ad8ff9bfbb type: readjust font sizes and spacings a little
This is in response to a minor complaint about the text size on
mastodon, which I agree with:
https://chaos.social/@imadnyc@mstdn.social/112961604691513932

I personally agree that 20px does not feel right, and more to the point,
our previous type scale was really odd: body text was 1.25rem (20px),
while the nav links were 1rem (16px). It seems like the intent of this
was to make it so that the body text was not 16px, which felt too small
(and does to me too).

However, it seems to me like the *actual* solution here is to set the
entire type scale overall larger, then decrease the size of any type
that looks particularly silly.

Thus, I've set the root font-size to 18px (via a percentage of 112.5%)
instead of the default 16px, which will fix all the 1rem font sizes
elsewhere in the site, to *make* 1rem a reasonable body text size.

jade c103690644 theme: distinguish code better
I found it really hard to read what was actually code, so this change
adds a very subtle hint of colour around all the code which has cheeky
border radii. I've also cheekily made the font a tiny bit smaller for
inline code so that even with the required padding, it does not mess up
the line spacing visibly.

title = "Announcing Lix 2.91 \"Dragon's Breath\""
author = "Lix Team"
date = "2024-08-12"
+++
We at the Lix team are proud to announce our second major release, version 2.91 "Dragon's Breath".
This release contains unspecified bug fixes and performance improvements—no of course we will tell you what is in it.
> [Dragon's Breath](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon%27s_Breath_(dessert)) is a frozen dessert made of spheres of cereal frozen in liquid nitrogen
Lix is a Nix implementation focused on reliability, predictability, friendliness, developed by a community of people from around the world.
We have long term plans to incrementally evolve Nix to work in more places, to make it more reliable and secure, and to update the language and semantics to correct past mistakes and reduce errors, all the while providing an amazing tooling experience.
## Upgrading from CppNix or previous Lix versions
The upgrade procedure depends on how you installed Lix or CppNix, and is fully described in the [Lix installation guide][install-guide].
If you are using Lix from nixpkgs on NixOS, you just need to upgrade your nixpkgs once the [upgrade pull request][upgrade-pr] has passed through the build farm into your channel; no other action is required.
The build progress can be checked on the [unofficial pull request tracker].
[upgrade-pr]: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/334269
[unofficial pull request tracker]: https://nixpk.gs/pr-tracker.html?pr=334269
[install-guide]: https://lix.systems/install/
If you want to help us test the next version of Lix, consider running `main` by following the [beta guide][beta-guide].
## Changes
The general theme of Lix 2.91 is to perform another wave of refactorings and design improvements in preparation for our evolution plans.
Nevertheless, there are a few exciting user facing changes:
- Lix now supports `--log-format multiline` and `--log-format multiline-with-logs` that show current activities in progress, thanks to [kloenk].
The following is a snapshot in time of the output; that is, the activities shown at the bottom are *just* the ones in progress and each disappears after it finishes.

- Hash-mismatch diagnostics now include a guess at the URL based on the derivation fields, thanks to [jade].
The URL may or may not be able to be directly passed to `nix-prefetch-url` to obtain the correct hash, so it is primarily intended just to identify which fixed-output derivation failed.
```
error: hash mismatch in fixed-output derivation '/nix/store/sjfw324j4533lwnpmr5z4icpb85r63ai-x1.drv':

```
- The Nix language pipe operator, [RFC 148](https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/148), has been implemented as an experimental feature `pipe-operator` in Lix by [piegames].
As usual with experimental features, the pipe operator is subject to potentially-breaking change as the design evolves.
Here is an impractical example for illustration:
```
nix-repl> 2 |> builtins.mul 5 |> builtins.add 2
12
```
- There is now a setting `build-dir` which allows changing the temporary directory used for builds, thanks to [K900]'s backport of [Robert Hensing] and [Tom Bereknyei]'s implementation in CppNix.
- The environment variables `NOCOLOR`/`NO_COLOR` and `CLICOLOR_FORCE`/`FORCE_COLOR` are heeded in the expected way for all Lix output, thanks to [jade].
Various little annoyances have been fixed:
- `:edit` of a file in the repl does not reload the repl if the file is in the Nix store, since the file is immutable so could not possibly change the evaluation result.
Thanks to [goldstein] for implementing this.
- Lix now respects your consent when you tell it to `accept-flake-config = false` and rejects the flake config instead of asking every time, thanks to [alois31].
- `nix-collect-garbage --dry-run` now actually prints out the paths it was going to delete instead of doing nothing, thanks to [Quantum Jump].
- Due to a bug, `nix copy` to various stores, especially s3, used to be exceptionally slow at querying paths in the remote store, to the tune of Lix releases taking an hour just to figure out what was in the binary cache before uploading the release.
This has now been made `nproc` times faster thanks to [jade] fixing the threading bug.
- The `nix upgrade-nix` logic is finally fixed thanks to [Qyriad] and should correctly handle upgrading from CppNix without workarounds.
Lix now makes various erroneous conditions clearer:
- Unknown flake URI parameters are now [reported as an error](https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/174), thanks to [ma27].
```
» nix flake metadata '.?meow=true'
error: unsupported Git input attribute 'meow'
```
- Evaluation errors are clearer:
- The component in an attribute path causing an error is correctly diagnosed, thanks to [Qyriad].
In particular, if an evaluation error occurs when accessing an attribute path `foo.bar.baz`, the error will now point to which of `foo`, `bar`, or `baz` caused the error.
- Errors caused by an explicit `builtins.throw` are diagnosed as such, rather than "while calling the 'throw' builtin", which could equally be because the arguments to `throw` *themselves* threw.
This is now unambiguous thanks to [Qyriad].
- Integer overflow in the Nix language is now considered an evaluation error, thanks to [jade].
This has also been [ported to CppNix](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/11188), effectively changing the language definition.
```
» nix eval --expr '9223372036854775807 + 1'
error: integer overflow in adding 9223372036854775807 + 1
```
Fun fact: Lix 2.90 also rejects integer overflow in the Nix language, by aborting the interpreter, due to our strict compiler flags.
The fact that nobody noticed the interpreter crash for months has emboldened us to remove it from the language with confidence.
We have, as usual, made various changes behind the scenes to enable future work:
- The parser has been rewritten using [pegtl] instead of the haunted and legacy GNU Bison, yielding a performance improvement around 5% to Lix evaluation.
This also improves the contributor experience and technical debt by removing many memory leaks and making the parser much easier to deal with as a normal C++ file.
This is all thanks to the hard work of [eldritch horrors].
- Several refactorings have been implemented to improve maintainability, thanks to [Artemis Tosini], [Qyriad], [jade], [alois31], [eldritch horrors], [ma27], [V.] and several others.
- clang-tidy is finally implemented in an enforcing mode in CI, which means that work can be done to add more lints to the enforced list, thanks to [jade].
- Since 2.90, Lix had a custom clang-tidy lint plugin in-tree, and as of 2.91, it is now being run on every change in CI.
As of this release, the first useful custom lint is now operational, requiring that certain already-safe `reinterpret_cast` invocations are replaced with a template wrapper `charptr_cast` that strictly checks its arguments.
This is thanks to [jade].
- Several lints have been added to the hard-fail list and eliminated altogether from the codebase, thanks to [eldritch horrors] and [jade].
- Lix now fully builds and passes its test suite with AddressSanitizer (assuming the garbage collector is disabled, which a helpful error will tell you), thanks to [eldritch horrors] and [jade].
- Boost coroutines, which blocked AddressSanitizer usage, have been completely excised from the codebase by the claws of [eldritch horrors] and replaced with C++ standard stackless coroutines.
- Overall the release process has been simplified and bugs fixed in it thanks to [jade].
The docker image of 2.91 should have a `latest` tag as intended, for example.

Thanks, as always, to the following groups:
- The several dozen people who [beta tested][beta-guide] the upcoming release by running `main` in production since the 2.91 branch-off.
We really appreciate having immediate feedback on our work, and the trust of running `main` alongside us means a lot to us.
If you want to run Lix `main` yourself, [see the beta guide][beta-guide] for details.
- Everyone who contributed by filing bugs and giving us feedback on Matrix.
- All the first time contributors who made their first contributions to a Nix implementation in Lix.
We are eternally grateful to everyone who helped us out on the numerous important but tedious issues.
- All the contributors who have helped us with the backlog of bugs.
- The CppNix contributors and CppNix team, without whom we would not have this software, and who wrote some of the improvements ported into this release.
[beta-guide]: https://wiki.lix.systems/books/lix-contributors/page/lix-beta-guide
Onwards and upwards for the next release.
We look forward to continuing to work together with everyone to build a better foundation for the future evolution of Nix.

title = "Lix installations upgrading to macOS Sequoia require manual repair"
author = "Lix Team"
date = "2024-09-15"
+++
macOS Sequoia release day is almost upon us, and that means all your Lix and Nix installations on macOS are going to break when you upgrade your OS.
Apple claimed some user IDs that are used in the default Nix installation which are then clobbered by the updater, leading to builds failing with the following error:
```
error: the user '_nixbld1' in the group 'nixbld' does not exist
```
To fix this, you can use the repair functionality of the installer (thanks to cole-h at DetSys for implementing the repair functionality and emilazy for porting it to lix-installer!):
```
curl -sSf -L https://install.lix.systems/lix | sh -s -- repair sequoia
```
If you want to apply the repair before upgrading, add `--move-existing-users` to the end of the command.
We have a wiki page with more links and details here: https://wiki.lix.systems/link/81
