Mentoring ad transcript:

Hey, you. Do you need help with Nix, NixOS, home-manager, flakes, flake-parts, dendritic, dev-shells, packaging, the Nix language, Nixpkgs, the module system, software development or maybe Rust?
I'm sure you can figure it out. But, you could pay the dime to cut the time.
Pay me! I'll teach you and guide you through whatever shenanigans you've gotten yourself into.
For 1-on-1 mentoring sessions with me visit mightyi.am.
