Ansible and Nix. Code is the document.


I am a developer. While AI is being marketed as snake oil, the things they can do is astonishing. One example is it reviews code a lot better than human beings. It’s not just finding obvious errors but it catches logical error that no human would have caught.
I see people are just forming two groups. Those who thinks AI will solve everything and those who thinks AI is useless. Neither of them are right.
I don’t use NixOS for my home server mainly because of lack of MAC (SELinux or AppArmor). I use Ansible to configure AlmaLinux from package installation to firewall to systemd services.
I use NixOS for desktop and development machines.
