My Work

In Nixpkgs, I work in maintaining the pkgs.xen derivations and the NixOS/xen module. If you have any issues with Xen on NixOS, or you'd like new features to be added to the Xen module, please open an issue in Nixpkgs and ping me there. If you're looking to become a Xen maintainer, make a contribution to the package, such as patching a Xen version with the latest XSAs, fixing an item marked as #TODO, or adding a new option to the module; then, add your handle to the meta.maintainers attribute in the xen/generic.nix file.

Happy virtualising!

About Me

I'm a systems administrator with a love for everything that's open source and bleeding edge. After all, Industry Standard is just a fancy word for ancient and in need of replacement.
I'm investing time with NixOS because immutable and stateless operating systems are the future, and NixOS is the closest thing we have to that.

Imagine a world where everything is declared and nothing breaks; a world where state is no longer an issue with computing, as everyone uses functional programming paradigms.

We should be working towards that future.

Though the server farm is dense, the cloud flows through it freely.
