All right, everybody. Hello and welcome. Welcome everyone. Please quiet down and sit. We're going to start with the introduction now. This is the
Nix and Nix OS dev room, right? We're doing a bit of an opening talk, so you know what's going on. Maybe you're in the wrong room, right?
Hopefully you're in the right room. We hope to be the right room. We're we're trying hard organizing this and
The organized is basically this is Paul Meier and my name is Martin Schweighofer. There's also
Brian Honoff who's currently many in the stand. There are also a lot of other people working at the stand,
so thank you very much for them. And
you hand-bonifatio who did really cool graphic designs for some search, search which selling at the stand.
I'm not I'm trying to I'm going to try to not make the introduction more complicated than it has to be, but at the same time
probably I'm going to make it more complicated than it has to be. Because yeah,
because Nix, sometimes things are complicated. So we're going to have really a lot of talks today,
so you can expect to hear quite a lot of different things. We have a much bigger room this year,
which is great. And the way we've decided to do things this year is we have lots of like we have the
talks grouped up a bit. We try to make it topical, but sometimes it's like semi-topical.
And so there will be a lot of talk and then two short talks and then there will be a break.
And we're repeating kind of this pattern throughout the day from today. And I hope you will have a good time with that.
I mentioned the stand already. We have a
in addition to the day from here we have a stand in building age. They put us with the operating systems this year.
It's always interesting because like the Nix and Nix OS project is different things to different
people. So we're moving around a lot with that, which is cool. And one thing that's new this year
is we have high quality shirts, really nice shirts, they turned out really well. So if you want to get
the shirt that's possible, we also have some stickers and we're happy to talk to you. Do we have
really, really large sizes? Freaks, freaks, Ellen's the largest size we have. We can talk about that at the
stand. All right. Now like the way I like to have fun is we have a bit of structure. So I'm
going to try to moderate this whole thing in a way where we kind of keep in time. We should try to
be respectful to each other of course. Since we bunched up the talks, so there's going to be a
talk, a long talk, a short talk and a short talk and then there's going to be like one large
QA session. So relatively, if you are QA time, but we'll try to use that time to get some questions and answers
for all the talks and then we're going to try to have people move. This room is a really
big room and we expect people to go in and out. But what we'd like you to do as well is
if you come in or go, just try to be quiet, try to sneak in, sneak out because the stairs are
really loud and yeah, that's sometimes a problem. The way we do the questions is, if somebody asks
multiple questions, we try to just make sure that everybody gets to ask a question, so we
deprioritize people who ask questions before and we just might cut people off just to make
sure that everybody can still follow a long and think stay interesting for everyone.
Yeah, for the speakers, would be great if you hear early. So not in the break before you're
not but before then so that I can see your faces, know who you are and if there's some issues
we can maybe talk about them and maybe you can also talk to the people you're sharing is
not with in order to figure out how you're going to, if you're going to quickly switch laptops
or if you want to for efficiency reasons, try to present on one machine because that would maybe
cut down on time for switching over and yeah, because we don't have like two minutes for switching
speakers between the lightning talks, we just have that between the larger sessions.
And pretty much, I think that's what I wanted to say for sure, I missed something.
So it's great to be here, it's great to have you here, I'm really happy that this much larger room
looks pretty full, like not as packed as the container depth room that was in here before,
but maybe next year, right? There's room to grow still and that's very exciting.
So yeah, thanks everybody and hope you have a good time here.
