getting kinda fed up with nixos
namely, it kinda sucks if you want to do any sort of normal development on it (say, you're trying to work on a C++ project that isn't built around nix)
see, that package might desperately need the fixupHook to be run in order to work on nix
but you only get that if you're doing a full nix-build
which is gonna completely bypass the caching of build artifacts that a makefile would usually give you
and so your build takes forever
